"A new economic history which uncovers the forgotten left-wing, anti-imperial, pacifist origins of economic cosmopolitanism and free trade from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. The post-1945 international free-trade regime was established to foster a more integrated, prosperous, and peaceful world. As US Secretary of State Cordell Hull (1933-1944), "Father of the United Nations" and one of the regime's principal architects, explained in his memoirs, "unhampered trade dovetailed with peace; high tariffs, trade barriers, and unfair economic competition, with war." Remarkably, this same economic order is now under assault from the country most involved in its creation: the United States. A global economic nationalist resurgence - heralded by Donald Trump's "America First" protectionism and resultant trade wars with the USA's closest allies and trading partners - now looks to transform over seventy years of regional and global market integration into an illiberal economic order resembling that of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Economic cosmopolitan critics of today's retreat from free trade have offered dire warnings that doing so would be catastrophic for global consumers and an existential threat to regional and world peace. But under what circumstances did this ideological marriage of free trade, prosperity, and peace arise? Who were its main adherents? How did this same free-trade ideology succeed in becoming the new economic orthodoxy following the Second World War? And how might the successes and failures of this earlier struggle to reform the economic order inform today's globalization crisis? In Pax Economica, economic historian Marc-William Palen finds answers amid a century of transnational peace and anti-imperial activism that stretched from Britain's unilateral adoption of free trade in 1846 to the founding of the US-led liberal trading system that arose immediately after the Second World War. Over five thematic chapters, considering the period from different perspectives, and utilising archival research conducted in Europe, North America, and Australia, Palen shows that this politico-ideological struggle to create a more prosperous and peaceful world through free trade pitted economic cosmopolitans against economic nationalists. Cosmopolitans sought to counter the industrialising world's embrace of economic nationalism because they believed - much like today's critics of Trump's tariffs and Brexit - that economic nationalism laid the groundwork for trade wars, high prices for consumers, and geopolitical conflict; while free trade created market interdependence, prosperity, social justice, and a more peaceful world. Pax Economica argues that this cosmopolitan fight for free trade laid foundations for a century of anti-imperial and peace activism across the globe - and paved the way for today's global trade regime now under siege"--

Excerpt from Pax Economica Freedom of International Exchange the Sole Method for the Permanent and Universal Abolition of War: With a Statement of the Cause and the Solution of the European Crisis, and a Sketch of the Only Possible Conclusive Settlement of the Problem Confronting the World Three years of a war more murderous, ruinous and hideous than human imagination ever could have conceived, the unexpected duration and the continuous aggravation of the most perilous crisis which could confront the world, the impending menace of a break-down of civilization, to which some grave symptoms already point, do not appear to have brought the governments, statesmen and leaders of thought any nearer to the conception of a settlement that a civilized mind could call a "solution" of the international situation. Very few among our contemporaries seem yet to realize that Force cannot "solve" international problems any more than other problems, cannot make the world more secure in the future than it has made it in the past, cannot establish a peace worthy to be lived, cannot save civilization-that these results can be attained only by justice and morality in international relations. Many indeed speak of "international justice." But these are words without significance, if they are not in accordance with international truth. Though truth always is justice, what we call and think to be justice is not often truth. Cognition of international truth must be sought through a statement of facts and the formation of a sound theory to be derived therefrom; the advent of international justice and of a lasting peace can be expected only through the expression of a practical proposal responding to facts and theory. We are confident that we offer such a proposal to our fellow-men in the conclusion of the following study of the world's problem. We do not propound new ideas; for more than six years before the outbreak of the war we have contended, wherever we have been able to do so, that only an economic understanding proceeding from a high and broad principle of freedom and equity applied to the fundamental relations of the nations could avert from humanity the catastrophe of a European conflagration; since the very first day of the war we have maintained, not only that a "Pax Economica" can be a permanent peace, but also that no other line of settlement offers a means and a prospect of putting an end to the process of mutual extermination and ruin of the nations.

The forgotten history of the liberal radicals, socialist internationalists, feminists, and Christians who envisioned free trade as the necessary prerequisite for anti-imperialism and peace Today, free trade is often associated with right-wing free marketeers. In Pax Economica, historian Marc-William Palen shows that free trade and globalisation in fact have roots in nineteenth-century left-wing politics. In this counterhistory of an idea, Palen explores how, beginning in the 1840s, left-wing globalists became the leaders of the peace and anti-imperialist movements of their age. By the early twentieth century, an unlikely alliance of liberal radicals, socialist internationalists, feminists, and Christians envisioned free trade as essential for a prosperous and peaceful world order. Of course, this vision was at odds with the era’s strong predilections for nationalism, protectionism, geopolitical conflict, and colonial expansion. Palen reveals how, for some of its most radical left-wing adherents, free trade represented a hard-nosed critique of imperialism, militarism, and war. Palen shows that the anti-imperial component of free trade was a phenomenon that came to encompass the political left wing within the British, American, Spanish, German, Dutch, Belgian, Italian, Russian, French, and Japanese empires. The left-wing vision of a “pax economica” evolved to include supranational regulation to maintain a peaceful free-trading system—which paved the way for a more liberal economic order after World War II and such institutions as the United Nations, the European Union, and the World Trade Organization. Palen’s findings upend how we think about globalisation, free trade, anti-imperialism, and peace. Rediscovering the left-wing history of globalism offers timely lessons for our own era of economic nationalism and geopolitical conflict.
