''The Great Illusion'' by Norman Angell is a thought-provoking study that challenges conventional beliefs about the benefits of military power and the pursuit of war. Angell argues that armed conflict and the quest for military dominance do not lead to lasting national advantage or economic prosperity.In this groundbreaking work, Angell asserts that the interdependence of nations and the interconnectedness of their economies make war an outdated and futile strategy. He presents compelling evidence and logical reasoning to demonstrate that armed aggression ultimately harms all parties involved, including the presumed victors.''The Great Illusion'' explores the economic and social consequences of war, debunking the notion that military strength guarantees national security or superiority. Angell’s ideas have had a profound impact on the field of international relations and have influenced policymakers and peace activists alike.
