Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Educational Organizations Promoting International Friendship, Vol. 4 How to attain peace between nations is a problem not to be settled by Dreadnoughts, but by psychology. As a man thinketh, so is he. If he has delirium tremens and thinks himself threatened by rattlesnakes, he acts accordingly. If he has been under the influence of the 727 active and retired officers of the army and navy in Washington who, in the words of Justice Brewer, "are gradually transforming the capital of the country into a military or naval center," he will doubtless share their point of view and see a possible enemy in nations with which we have always been at peace. Nothing is so important as that men shall think right, and especially that the rising generation shall be well instructed upon the momentous international issues of our new time. Happily, within the past few years several very encouraging educational movements have been initiated in the United States, which give promise of creating a different psychology in the citizen of the future as regards the whole question of national dangers and national defense. It is the purpose of this paper to give an account of some of these movements. The American School Peace League held its first annual meeting at Denver in July, 1909, in connection with the convention of the National Education Association. At the annual business meeting of the latter association, which represents the educators of the country, resolutions were passed unanimously and earnestly indorsing the League, and urging all teachers to cooperate with it. The origin of this splendidly organized association was most interesting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
