A group of seven talks
2-War and International Politics by Martin Wight
Reader in International Relations,
University of London
By the causes of war we normally mean human motives, and Mr. Wight suggests that the motives for war have remained fairly constant in international history. In particular, he discusses the condition of stasis-that is, a condition of strife within communities as distinct from strife between them-in international society since 1789 which has resulted from the motive of doctrinal conflict.
War and the Economic Mechanism, by R. C. Tress: October 10
