Chapter II: Introduction

Newer ideals of peace are dynamic; if made operative
will do away with war as a natural process 3

Of the older ideals the appeal to pity is dogmatic 4

The appeal to the sense of prudence also dogmatic
and at this moment seems impotent 5

Outlook for universal peace by international arbitration 6

Primitive and profound impulses operate against impulse
to war 8

Appeal to pity and prudence unnecessary if the cosmopolitan
interest in human affairs is utilized 9

Social morality originates in social affections 11

Emotion determines social relations in the poorer
quarters of a cosmopolitan city 13

New immigrants develop phenomenal powers of association 14

Their ideal of government includes kindliness as
well as protection 15

Crowded city quarters the focal point of governmental
progress 16

Life at these points must shape itself with reference
to the demands of social justice 17

Simple foundations laid there for an international
order 18

Ideals formed “in the depth of anonymous life” make
for realization 20

Impulses toward compassionate conduct imperative 21

The internationalism of good will foreseen by the
philosopher 23

A quickening concern for human welfare; international
aspects illustrated by world-wide efforts
to eradicate tuberculosis, first signs of the substitution
of nurture for warfare 25

This substitution will be a natural process 26

Our very hope for it, a surrender to the ideals of the
humble 27

Accounting must be taken between survivals of militarism
and manifestations of newer humanitarianism 28

Tendency to idealization marked eighteenth-century
humanitarian 29

Newer ideals of this century sustained only by
knowledge and companionship 30
