The Dangers Of Half-Preparedness

Norman Angell's 1916 work emphasizes the necessity for the United States to establish a clear foreign policy amidst World War I. He argues against the risks of half-preparedness, asserting that neutrality is insufficient for protecting national interests and maintaining global standing. Angell advocates for a decisive approach rooted in peace and international cooperation, highlighting the potential perils of indecision during crises. This book serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of a well-defined foreign policy in turbulent times.
