COLLECTIVE SECURITY NOT ALL
“Collective security cannot be had in a world that has no common conception of morals, rights, methods of trading, and the amount of energy that is to be diverted into armament. When m tions succeed in the quest for justice and law. they get collective security as a by-product. But if they make security and not justice their shibboleth they may find themselves going to Munich instead of into Utopia “Our job is not to create a state to administer the affairs of men. It is, rather, to build one that will administer justice among men who conduct their own affairs. Part of the administration of justice may be to exact duties from corporations in exchange for the legal grant of limited liability.”— (Walter Lippmann, American publicist, in “The Good Society.”)
