The Duties of World Citizenship

del Vayo, J. Alvarez | October 21, 1944 issue

add to cart   close window

The first-duty of world citizenship in the years to come is to preserve democracy against the efforts of fascism to survive military defeat. It will not be an easy task, because we shall arrive at the end of the European war victorious but under the handicap of the lack of a democratic policy in the conduct of the war. Collective democratic security is the pledge of the most alert liberal elements in every country to strike down any single fascist regime, which tries to survive the military defeat of the Axis powers. The author denies entirely that there is a possibility of peace, of freedom in Europe or in the world so long as a single fascist regime is allowed to survive.
