Вечный мир - Философский очерк (Perpetual Peace: A Philosophical Sketch)

by Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant's *Perpetual Peace: A Philosophical Sketch* is a seminal work in political philosophy, outlining his vision for a world free from war. Kant argues that perpetual peace is not simply an ideal but a possibility, achievable through a combination of international law, republican governance, and a shift in moral consciousness. He proposes a set of articles, or 'definite articles,' that would govern relations between states, emphasizing the importance of free trade, the abolition of standing armies, and the respect for individual rights. Kant’s *Perpetual Peace* remains a vital and controversial text, inspiring debate on the nature of peace, the role of reason in international relations, and the possibilities for a more just world order.
