DDC classification:

320.5 WAR

Summary: It is so often said that an understanding of the present relies upon an understanding of the past; in the present age the truth of this is perhaps less patent than formerly. Never before has the world been so divided by conflict ing ideologies, never has so much depended upon the finding, not, perhaps, of a reconciliation of the ideologies, but of a means of co-existence. The very continuation of the human race would seem to hang upon a solution of this problem. Barbara Ward does not make the mistake common to many economists and political theorists of attempting to interpret the present, still less to prophesy the future, in terms solely of the past.
