International relations

DDC classification:

327.2 Hud

Summary: In the light of the conditions then prevailing, it was most natural that our conversation would turn to world affairs, and Mr. Huddleston was especially concerned with the sad state of diplomacy. This seemed to him to be the key problem in international affairs, based on the reasoning that unless diplomacy can avert a third World War, what remains of civiliztion faces destruction by atomic bombs, guided missiles, and bacterial and gas warfare. Author discussed at length the many, impressive, and distressing contrasts between the old and the new diplomacy, and stressed the grave menace of the latter, while not denying that the older diplomacy had many defects and had been superseded by the newer or Popular Diplomacy mainly because it proved inadequate to the crisis of 1914.
