  • Edwin Ginn's Commitment to World Government

    Open AccessArthur N HolcombeARTICLEInternational Organization1966References: 1

    Edwin Ginn's vision of world peace, as recorded in his last will and testament, involved him in a commitment to world government. World government, however, is an objective which seems to many mid-twentieth century observers of international politics excessively visionary. The nineteenth-century dream of a parliament of man, a federation of the world, fills a bright page in Victorian poetry. But much contemporary prose is written by men whose vis…

  • Edwin Ginn's Vision of World Peace

    Open AccessArthur N HolcombeARTICLEInternational Organization1965Cited by: 2

    Edwin Ginn, successful publisher of educational books, philanthropist, and founder of the World Peace Foundation, gave much thought to the problem of world peace and believed that he knew the answer. He was convinced that world peace, as he understood it, was highly desirable, was attainable, and was likely to be achieved in the not too distant future. To this achievement he devoted a third of the wealth accumulated during a lifetime of demonstra…

    Open AccessArthur N HolcombeARTICLEAmerican Political Science Review1953Cited by: 1References: 1

    The official American policy regarding a United Europe has developed rapidly since the end of World War II and has already gone far toward committing the United States to the establishment of a European Union of some kind. The first important overt act in this development was the declaration of policy in the Economic Cooperation Act of 1948. One purpose of this legislation, Congress declared, was “to encourage these countries [that is, European p…

    THE international trusteeship system, which is to be established under the provisions of Chapter XII of the Charter of the United Nations, was planned to supersede the mandate system of the League of Nations. The plan has provoked much controversy. The principal colonial powers would like to have the world believe that they are already administering their dependent territories in the spirit of a trusteeship on behalf of the native inhabitants and…

  • The Political Interpretation of History

    Open AccessArthur N HolcombeARTICLEAmerican Political Science Review1937

    Ever since the inquisitive age in which Voltaire wrote his Philosophic Dictionary , reflection upon the course of human events has caused scholars to persist in the search for a rational interpretation of history. They have not been discouraged by the skepticism of historians who, like Froude, have argued that the address of history must be less to the understanding than to the higher emotions. “A science of history,” according to this historian,…

  • The Future of the Washington Conference Treaties

    Open AccessArthur N HolcombeARTICLEAmerican Political Science Review1932

    At the outset, it is pertinent to recall the high hopes with which, ten years ago, the Washington Conference Treaties were proclaimed to the world. We can still remember the measured words with which President Harding brought the Conference to a close. “This Conference,” he declared, “has wrought a truly great achievement. It is hazardous sometimes to speak in superlatives, and I will be restrained. But I will say with every confidence that the f…
