Living the Great Illusion
Sir Norman Angell, pioneer both of international relations as a distinct discipline and of the theory of globalization, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, and one of the twentieth century's leading internationalist campaigners on both sides of the Atlantic, lived the great illusion in three senses. First, his 'life job', as he came to call it, was founded upon and defined by The Great Illusion, a best-seller whose original version appeared in 1909: it perceptively showed how economic interdependence would prevent great powers profiting from war; yet it made other, less felicitous, claims from whose implications he spent decades trying to extricate himself.

The Great Illusion
The Great Illusion is a work by Norman Angell. It attempts to provide an answer for one of the greatest problems in human history: War and the reasoning behind the need for it.
The Fruits of Victory
Sir Ralph Norman Angell (26 December 1872 - 7 October 1967) was an English lecturer, journalist, author, and Member of Parliament for the Labour Party. Angell was one of the principal founders of the Union of Democratic Control. He served on the Council of the Royal Institute of International Affairs, was an executive for the World Committee against War and Fascism, a member of the executive committee of the League of Nations Union, and the president of the Abyssinia Association. He was knighted in 1931 and awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1933.
Peace Theories and the Balkan War
"Peace Theories and the Balkan War" is a classic Balkan War history text by Norman Angell that examines the Balkan wars in the years preceding World War One. The author of the book criticizes the Crimean War from a pacifist viewpoint but also supports the then-current wars against the Ottoman Turks, which he characterizes as essentially defensive.
The Great Illusion
International trade and the development of intertwined global markets makes inter-state war less profitable and probable. This is Norman Angell's simple hypothesis, vigorously defended in The Great Illusion and at the root of an enduring controversy, from the time of its initial publication - on the eve of the First World War - to this day. Well documented, logically argued and persuasive, The Great Illusion is a passionate defense of peace, attacking widely held, yet unquestioned assumptions about the gains from war and the costs of conquest.
