Reactionary and Bellicose Policies
From: The Great Class War 1914-1918
$2.40
Early 1900s. The tension becomes unbearable, and the elite becomes more and more convinced
that only war is the definitive solution of the social problem — and of many other
problems. There seem to be only two options, revolution or war, and the decision
will be made soon. Revolution must be avoided at all cost, so the ruling classes of
the great powers deliberately pursue a reactionary policy leading to war . . .
