The Great Illusion - (Paperback or Softback)

"The Great Illusion: A Study of the Relation of Military Power to National Advantage" by Norman Angell is a seminal work exploring the complex interplay between war, economic interdependence, and international relations. Angell challenges prevailing notions of militarism and nationalism, arguing that military power is ultimately detrimental to national advantage in an era of increasing global interconnectedness. This thought-provoking study, categorized under Political Science, Business & Economics, and Military History, delves into the subject of commercial policy, examining how economic realities undermine the perceived benefits of war. Angell meticulously dismantles the "great illusion" that military strength equates to economic prosperity, highlighting the inherent costs and futility of armed conflict in a world increasingly reliant on international trade and cooperation. A crucial text for understanding the dynamics of peace and conflict, "The Great Illusion" remains relevant for anyone seeking insight into the enduring challenges of international relations.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
