“It ought not to be the case that there is one standard of morality for individuals in their relations with one another, a different and a slighter standard for corporations, and a third and still slighter standard for nations.” That this, however, actually is the case is the book’s contention. The author makes a plea for an emergency commerce and finance agreement between nations by way of preventing economic ruin and starvation in the war-stricken countries of Europe. “For morality among nations, as among individuals, implies faith and risk-taking.”
