Perpetual Peace
Perpetual Peace by Immanuel Kant, first published in 1795, is a seminal essay in political philosophy that outlines a framework for achieving lasting peace among nations. Kant proposes a set of principles, including the establishment of republican governments, international cooperation, and respect for human rights, to prevent war and foster peace. Translated by William Hastie, this work remains influential in discussions of international relations and the ethics of global governance.
