The moral equivalent of war new york: american association for international conciliation, february 1910.

First separate edition, published as no. 27 Of the associations publications. This essay, based on a speech delivered at stanford university in 1906, is the origin of the idea of organized national service. The line of descent runs directly from this address to the depression-era civilian conservation corps to the peace corps, vista, and americorps. Though some phrases grate upon modern ears, particularly the assumption that only males can perform such service, several racially-biased comments, and the notion that the main form of service should be viewed as a warfare against nature, it still sounds a rallying cry for service in the interests of the individual and the nation - anonymous commentary on this essay hosted on the uky william james web site. The 1910 printing by atlantic monthly press credits this edition for reprint permission. As would be expected, oclc locates an abundance of copies in institutional collections, while outside of same, this edition is somewhat uncommon.
