Foundations for a peaceful postwar Europe This concise treatise explores how a proposed Council of the Nations could lead to open diplomacy, shared rules, and a lasting peace. It argues for public deliberations, national self‑determination, and governance by consent as steps toward stability.

The book surveys practical ideas for reducing armaments, enforcing decisions, and building a civilised international system. It discusses how nations can become a true community with common interests and a common conscience, even in a still‑unorganised world.

• A real Council of all nations to guide settlement and security


• Public, open diplomacy that discourages secret deals


• National self‑determination and plebiscites to decide territorial changes


• Guardianship and guarantees from major powers to protect smaller states

Ideal for readers of historical policy debates and those curious about early ideas for a modern European order after wartime upheaval.
