True peace is not merely the absence of war, it is the presence of justice. - Jane Addams
A pioneering vision of peace grounded in justice, democracy, and social responsibility.
In this influential work, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Jane Addams presents a bold rethinking of peace in the modern world. Writing at the dawn of the twentieth century, she challenges the traditional view that peace simply means the absence of war, arguing instead that lasting peace must be built on justice, cooperation, and shared human responsibility.
Drawing on her experience as a social reformer and founder of Hull House, Addams shows how democratic values, social progress, and international cooperation can replace the rivalries and militarism that have shaped world history. She argues that modern societies require new ideals of peace based on interdependence rather than conquest.
Far ahead of her time, Addams defends the role of ordinary citizens, social movements, and humanitarian action in building a peaceful world. Her arguments anticipate later movements for human rights, international cooperation, and nonviolence.
Both visionary and practical, this classic work remains one of the most important early statements of modern peace activism and social justice.
Jane Addams (1860-1935), often called the Mother of Social Work, was a pioneering social reformer and peace activist and co-founder of Hull House in Chicago. Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931, she was the first American woman to receive the honor, and remains one of the most influential figures in the history of social reform.
