The essay explores the fragility of peace and international cooperation, arguing that the belief in states' inherent desire to uphold these ideals is misguided. It challenges the notion that adherence to a moral code is sufficient to maintain global stability, emphasizing that the actions of individual states can significantly disrupt the international order. The analysis suggests that relying solely on these assumptions is inadequate for ensuring lasting peace and cooperation among nations.
