Addams, Jane. Newer ideals of peace. (Citizens’ lib.) *$1.25. Macmillan.
7–4377.
For the dogmatic, even sentimental peace-notions bruited about the world by ardent advocates, Miss Addams substitutes the newer dynamic peace embodying the later humanism, whose meaning is implied in such words as “overcoming” “substituting,” “re-creating,” “readjusting moral values” and “forming new centers of spiritual energy.” She offers the moral substitutes for war that are an outgrowth of a definite national background.
“I think in logical organization this book suffers more than her earlier writing. On the other hand, perhaps, nowhere can one find the social point of view, which we must assume, presented with so much inherent necessity as here.” George Herbert Mead.
