Overview

""The United States of the World"" explores the ambitious concept of a unified global federation as a primary means to achieve lasting international peace. Written during the critical interwar period, Oscar Newfang provides a detailed analysis of the structural failures of the League of Nations and proposes a more robust alternative modeled after the federal system of the United States. Newfang argues that just as individual states within a nation can coexist under a central authority to prevent internal conflict, the nations of the world must surrender a degree of sovereignty to a supranational government to eliminate the scourge of war. The book delves into the practicalities of international law, the establishment of a global legislature, and the necessity of an executive power capable of enforcing peace. This work serves as a significant historical document in the field of political science, reflecting the early 20th-century movements toward globalism and collective security. It remains a thought-provoking study for those interested in the evolution of international relations theory and the persistent quest for a stable world order.
