Review of Social Psychology of International Conduct

Abstract

Reviews the book, Social Psychology of International Conduct by G. M. Stratton (1929). Dr. Stratton's book belies the not infrequent view that social psychology can contribute little toward control of the forces--mainly war--which at times threaten civilization. Here is a closely packed summary of the matured wisdom of a relatively unbiased student of international conduct, presented in an easy persuasive style that has clarity and is usually convincing. The volume will be found very acceptable to those who have sought for a text on the psychology of international relations or for a second semester course in advanced social psychology Because of the non-technical treatment the lay reader will find it easily within his powers of comprehension.
