NOTES

In "The Great Illusion", Norman Angell argues that militarism and imperial ambitions no longer serve as viable pathways to national prosperity. By exploring the growing importance of economic cooperation, international diplomacy, and the intertwined nature of global markets, Angell reveals the truth behind what drives real power in the modern world. Through a blend of political economy and military strategy, Angell demonstrates that war is not only morally unjust, but it's also economically irrational in an interconnected, industrial world. Nations that fail to see this truth risk destruction, while those that embrace global peace and shared economic interests will rise to new heights of prosperity and stability
