Description: The Reckoning is a book written by James Montgomery Beck in 1918. It discusses the moral aspects of the peace problem and the need for retributive justice as an indispensable element. The book explores the idea that peace cannot be achieved without justice and that the punishment of wrongdoers is necessary for the restoration of order and the prevention of future conflicts. Beck argues that the failure to hold individuals and nations accountable for their actions can lead to a breakdown of the moral fabric of society. The Reckoning is a thought-provoking and timely book that challenges readers to consider the role of justice in the pursuit of peace.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
