Synopsis
A clear-eyed look at how war grows from finance, diplomacy, and privilege—and what it would take to stop it.
This book argues for practical democracy that changes how nations pay for war.
Explore how modern economies, banking, and imperial ambitions shape conflicts. The work connects finance, taxation, and foreign policy to the rise of war, and it outlines a democratic path to peace that involves shared obligations and reform of power.
Two short paragraphs frame a practical vision: readers will see how proposed changes in taxation, inheritance, and diplomacy could reduce the incentives for war and promote disarmament. The analysis stays focused on policies and real-world effects rather than abstract theory.
- How privilege and profits influence war decisions
- Connections between taxation, finance, and militarism
- Strategies for expanding democracy in foreign affairs
- Paths toward disarmament and peaceful dispute resolution
Ideal for readers seeking a historically grounded argument for democracy as a tool for lasting peace.
