RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 “Scientific Pacifism” in Alfred Hermann Fried’s Mein Kriegstagebuch JF Monatshefte FD University of Wisconsin Press SP 44 OP 71 DO 10.3368/m.110.1.44 VO 110 IS 1 A1 Edward T. Larkin YR 2018 UL http://mon.uwpress.org/content/110/1/44.abstract AB The Nobel Prize recipient Alfred Hermann Fried a significant yet less celebrated pacifist at the turn of the twentieth century in both Austria and Germany, developed his “scientific pacifism” in his theoretical writings, Handbuch der Friedensbewegung (1905, 1911, 1913) and Die Grundlagen des revolutionären Pacifismus (1908). Less studied is his Kriegs-Tagebuch, which he kept during the war and published in four volumes in 1918–1920. This essay examines how the constitutent parts of “scientific pacifism” held up during the war, which Fried experienced from his forced emigration in Switzerland. It considers his views on internationalism, leadership, militarism, rearmament, economics, democracy, and the treaties ending the war. The essay argues that Fried remained steadfast in his passionate and rigorous convictions against war even if he became less sanguine, but not ultimately despondent, about the establishment of a stable peace.
