Paperback. Condizione: As New. Unread and unopened!As Felix Morley points out in his perceptive preface to this volume of essays on the foreign policy of the United States in the era of Franklin D. Roosevelt, it consists of a re-examination which more fully explains and amplifies rather than 'revising' what we know of that subject in that time.Robert J. Bresler's concise 'The Ideology of the Execuuve State" is a brilliant examination of the liberal rationalization for permanent global interference on the part of a liberal State characterized by virtually unlimited executive power (The United States has an active and vital interest in the destiny of every nation on the planet," as Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., asserts), and its consequences of nearly continuous war. Murray N. RotlhbardâÃÂÃÂs elegant dissection of New Deal monetary expediencies as it sought to advance its own version of economic nationalism, and the growing chaos of economic warfare which followed these adventures, cuts throughmuch of the silvery rhetoric which tended to obscure these practical considerations. Robert Freeinan Smith's examination of one aspect of this, the New Deal's "Good Neighbor Policy" as it related to economic relations with the Latin American world from Mexico to Argentina, stresses the chronic conflicts and contradictions which grew out of the attempts to achieve paradoxical goals in these vastly different lands. Lloyd Gardner applies considerable insight to what was probably the most critical area of this subject, the intensification of collision between the expanding foreign trade ambitions and programs of Germany and Japan, and the United States, and the vision of re-creating a post-Depression world economic order under American leadership and control. Justus D. Doenecke concentrates new approaches on the alternatives to New Deal international economic adventures and projections proposed by Roosevelt's domestic political opposition, the isolationists; a general theme which is investigated in greater detail in the case of a single one of the anti-New Deal spokesmen, the redoubtable Robert A. Taft, by James T. Patterson. The symposium is concluded by an admirable synthesis by the late William L. Neumann of the decisions and evasion's of decisions by Roosevelt during the global war which closed out the New Deals political tenure, his emphasis is on how they contributed to the political foundations of the post-war world, while at the same time leaving a residue of unsolved and so far insoluble problems for his successors to wrestle with ever since.

MEN AGAINST THE STATE first appeared in the spring of 1953. Within a matter of months it had received nearly fifty highly commendatory reviews in thirteen countries in seven languages. Few products of American scholarly research in our time have gained more widespread international respect in such a short time. This book brought back into view a tradition which almost disappeared between the beginning of the First World War and the end of the Second, the philosophy and deeds of anti-statist libertarian voluntarism in the United States during the three generations which flourished between 1825 and 1910, in a style which a London commentator described as "a model of readable scholarship." In the 1950s, the era of the "organization man" and almost unparalleled political passivity, MEN AGAINST THE STATE may have been a premature book, as some have observed, despite being reprinted two more times later in the decade. This quiet and un- sensational circulation continued to further its reputation, nevertheless. In the last ten years however it has been recognized by many as the starting point for anyone concerned with the antecedents of libertarianism in the United States. The spread of interest in such thinking among a new generation has prompted the reissuance of this book.

The Fenian Movement is a sprightly account of one of the most unusual and most neglected chapters in the history of American international politics. Written by a specialist in this area of United States history, and heavily documented, especially from contemporary newspaper sources, nevertheless it is presented in a simple and readable style, with touches of quiet but charming wit. Mrs. Walker deals fairly and openly with this very tangled development of the period of 1848-1871, when the affairs of the United States, England, Ireland and Canada became wondrously complicated, as a consequence of the ramification of Irish politics. The efforts of Irish emigrants to America to launch an independence movement at home, and, when this failed, to seek to establish an independent revolutionary Irish state carved out of part of Canada, is the substance of this book. Woven into the story of the intensely involved question which aggravated the policy-makers of four countries for years is a thorough account relating the conflict between two separate factions within the Fenian membership. The quarrels over leadership, finances, and general strategy, and the personality conflicts which raged within the ranks of this spirited group of Irish revolutiona1ies, are described here in detail for the first time. Even more revealing is the substantial impact the Fenian activities had on domestic American politics, and particularly after the Civil War had additionally inflamed the temper of Americans toward England. The Fenian Movement is a useful addition to the sparse literature on an amazing episode.

Paperback. Condizione: As New. First Paperbound Edition. Unread and unopened! This is the complete account of the rise and decline of the antimilitarist tradition-rooted in fear of dictatorship-that has been an important part of the American heritage from colonial times until now. This tradition, with its emphasis upon civil rather than military authority, is accepted as an essential element of American freedom and democracy. In spite of being involved in numerous wars, the United States has avoided becoming a militaristic nation, and the American people, though hardly pacifists, have been staunch opponents of militarism. This book gives a thorough survey of notable issues and landmarks that have affected the role of the civilian and the military in American history. All pertinent legislation as well as much private and public discussion have been taken into account. Debates about the size of the standing army, the role of the militia, the level of army and navy appropriations, and the use of conscription have been placed in their historical setting. Since about 1900 traditional antimilitarism has been considerably weakened. Militarism in its older form of standing armies on parade has been succeeded by such developments as a war economy and the garrison state. The growing power and importance of the military office and personnel over all aspects of national life during the present international tension is alarming thoughtful citizens and statesmen. This book supplies not only a fully documented historical survey but also ample background for an understanding and analysis of the complicated problem of militarism today. The author believes that the inability, or refusal, of the world to recognize the existence of a new type of militarism, which has so increasingly penetrated all phases of twentieth-century civilization, imperils the future of both liberalism and democracy. Mr. Ekirch brings to light new materials and makes use of the Swarthmore College Peace Collection and the Villard and the Amos Pinchot Papers. His approach is that of the historian rather than the crusader. His book will excite controversy among both pacifists and militarists and will appeal to anyone interested in history, U.S. military policy, and current events.
