Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from After the War In a previous pamphlet, entitled "The War and the Way Out," I showed at length how this war, like other European wars, was caused by the working of a false theory of the State on the minds and passions of rulers, statesmen, journalists, and peoples. In the pages that follow it is my object to discuss in some detail the kind of settlement which will be needed at the peace, if such wars are not to recur again and again. But since men´s ideas as to the kind of peace that is desirable are affected by their conception of the causes of the war, I must begin by some discussion of these. For an inadequate idea of the causes must lead to an inadequate idea of the remedy. "Germany," we say, "made the war." Yes! But what is Germany? The German people? The peasants? The factory laborers? The millions of Social Democrats? They made the war? Is it likely? The German masses are as peaceable as those of every other country. Their soldiers complain of it. We are fond of quoting General Bernhardi, but we never quote the passage in which he explains why he wrote his book. He wrote it, he tells us, to counteract "the aspirations for peace which seem to dominate our age and threaten to poison the soul of the German people."
