Excerpt from The Conscience of Europe: The War and the Future My aim in this book has been to consider certain aspects of the war in their relation to the Conscience of the peoples of Europe. To do so it is necessary to regard them from a relatively independent standpoint. This is no easy task in such times as these, for it is difficult to shake off the influence of our prepossessions and assumptions whilst engaged in the heat of conflict for what seems to us a righteous cause, and to see and consider facts and events dispassionately. The difficulty is increased by the fact that Humanity is under the stress of an unprecedented disaster, which, though the extent of its desolating misery is largely hidden beneath the mantle of military and political phrases, and by the impossibility of grasping all its endless ramifications, is by its very nature and the passions it arouses almost paralysing to the critical faculties. And yet, surely we ought from time to time to endeavour to clear our vision and balance our judgment for the sake of both the present and the future.
