The Great Illusion by Norman Angell
A Study of the Relation of Military Power to National Advantage
The book argues that the economic interdependence of nations in the modern world makes war irrational and counterproductive. It challenges the notion that military conquest and the accumulation of territory lead to national prosperity, suggesting instead that such actions disrupt economic stability and harm all parties involved. By emphasizing the interconnectedness of global economies, the book posits that peace and cooperation are more beneficial for nations than conflict and competition.
