Justice and World Society

This book explores the universal ideal of justice, known to many generations as the laws of nature.“ The universal ideal of justice was conceived with insufficient realism when it was thought to furnish a law known to all, rather than a standard for justice. The book argues not for a revival of the law of nature but for a renewal of belief in the universality of justice.”

Originally published in 1944.
