Extract

The heading under which these observations are brought together may well seem presumptuous. The request made to me was to deal with the subject: “collective security”—a phrase which I am hesitant to use, for it has come to cover the most diverse international political arrangements. The title adopted provides a convenient umbrella under which to bring together a number of general observations on the approach to the problem of maintaining peace.
