In the Fourth Year: Anticipations of a World Peace

"In the Fourth Year: Anticipations of a World Peace" by H. G. Wells is a collection of essays published in 1918. Written as World War I drew to a close, Wells advocates for establishing a League of Nations to secure lasting peace. He explores the powers such a league should possess, argues for democratic representation at peace conferences, and examines political institutions needed for a transformed post-war world. These influential essays shaped contemporary thinking about international cooperation and helped inform interpretations of President Wilson's Fourteen Points.
