This book gives a comprehensive account of the British Idealist approach to international relations from the 1880s to 1930s.
In an attempt to historically contextualise the shifts in several British Idealists' approaches to the nature of international relations and human rights, it focuses on their reflections on the Second Boer War, the Great War and the League of Nations.
The ensuing discussion offers valuable insights into British Idealists' evolving approaches to the topics of imperialism.
