Semi-Detached Idealists: The British Peace Movement and International Relations, 1854-1945

by Martin Ceadel

Overview

Covering all significant peace associations and campaigns, this work is the first comprehensive and authoritative study of Great Britain's efforts to not merely prevent war but to abolish it. It is based on an extensive use of archival as well as printed sources, making it relevant both to historians of nineteenth and twentieth century British politics and to specialists in international relations interested in the anti-realist tradition.
