520     bold and provocative history of the men who fought to 
       outlaw war and how an often overlooked treaty signed in 
       1928 was among the most transformative events in modern 
       history.  On a hot summer afternoon in 1928, the leaders 
       of the world assembled in Paris to outlaw war. Within the 
       year, the treaty signed that day, known as the Peace Pact,
       had been ratified by nearly every state in the world. War,
       for the first time in history, had become illegal the 
       world over. But the promise of that summer day was 
       fleeting. Within a decade of its signing, each state that 
       had gathered in Paris to renounce war was at war. And in 
       the century that followed, the Peace Pact was dismissed as
       an act of folly and an unmistakable failure. This book 
       argues that that understanding is inaccurate, and that the
       Peace Pact ushered in a sustained march toward peace that 
       lasts to this day.  The Internationalists tells the story 
       of the Peace Pact by placing it in the long history of 
       international law from the seventeenth century through the
       present, tracing this rich history through a fascinating 
       and diverse array of lawyers, politicians and 
       intellectuals—Hugo Grotius, Nishi Amane, Salmon Levinson, 
       James Shotwell, Sumner Welles, Carl Schmitt, Hersch 
       Lauterpacht, and Sayyid Qutb. It tells of a centuries-long
       struggle of ideas over the role of war in a just world 
       order. It details the brutal world of conflict the Peace 
       Pact helped extinguish, and the subsequent era where 
       tariffs and sanctions take the place of tanks and 
       gunships.  The Internationalists examines with renewed 
       appreciation an international system that has outlawed 
       wars of aggression and brought unprecedented stability to 
       the world map. Accessible and gripping, this book will 
       change the way we view the history of the twentieth 
       century—and how we must work together to protect the 
       global order the internationalists fought to make 
       possible.
