Goldsworthy Lowes Dickinson - The European Anarchy

These pages were written in the hope that they might be read and considered by the more reasonable section of the British public. But they are likely at the present moment to find more response in America than in England. The sympathies of Americans appear to be, generally and warmly, on the side of the allies, because they recognize that a German victory would imperil the principles and the spirit for which America stands. But Americans also recognize that no military victory or defeat can of itself secure that durable peace by which alone democratic liberties can be assured and developed. The whole system of international relations must be transformed by a deliberate act of policy if this result is to be achieved. The states must combine not in temporary alliances and counter-alliances, pregnant with new wars, but in a union to develop the law of nations and to sustain it against laws breakers. As I write, this country is engaged in a campaign for preparedness. Preparedness for what? To enter that European competition in armaments, which alone is a sufficient cause of war? Or to put armaments, jointly with other states, behind law and against aggression, from whatever Power aggression may be threatened? To do the former would be merely to add to the dangers of war a new factor. To do the latter might start the nations on the road to a durable peace. Anarchy and destruction, or law and reconstruction, is the choice before the world; and the United States during the next months may largely help to determine which it shall be. A practical proposal for making the transition from anarchy to law is put forward by the American League to Enforce Peace. 1 It is to some such solution that this essay points. For it shows how behind this war, as behind wars in the past, lay not merely the aggression of Germany, but the whole tradition and practice of European diplomacy. To take the lead in introducing into international relations that new policy which alone can guarantee and preserve civilization may be the special mission and glory of the United States. On their action at this crisis of the race the future of society may depend. And if this little book shall have any smallest influence in clarifying and concentrating American opinion upon the problem to be solved, it will have fulfilled the purpose for which it was written
