| Summary |
"The War over Perpetual Peace explores the history of Kant's most celebrated treatise, tracing the competing interpretations of it that scholars have offered over the last two hundred years. Easley demonstrates the existence of two distinct patterns of interpretation that have existed in the literature since the mid-nineteenth century: first, that the text endorses peace proposals above the state level, and second, that the text is in favor of peace proposals at the state level."--BOOK JACKET |
