Notes
"Edited by Dr. Percy Dearmer, Canon of Westminster".
"The issue, indeed, is simple. The motives and methods of human life are not sufficiently moralised: it was to moralise the machinery of production, to limit the power of selfishness, that Wilberforce and Shaftesbury were working a century ago; and the whole world now enjoys what Christians then won: but in many ways industry and business, and family life, and civic and political activity, need further moralisation. Money -- the necessary use of tokens of exchange -- has been overlooked in its moral aspect (in spite of what Christ said about it) .... And, alas, there was one aspect of human life which was not understood a hundred years ago; and to this our present miseries are mainly due. The very word 'international' had then only just been coined by Jeremy Bentham. The whole conception of moralising international relations was in its infancy. So the world went on to its doom. So, because the nations and their representatives have not yet learnt the elements of international behaviour, we stand at this moment of writing on the brink of irretrievable disaster. It is in a very real sense true that only Christ can save the world from ruin to-day. Are we prepared to let his spirit save the nations from themselves ?" -- Preface, p. 10-11.

"The papers included in this volume were presented to the Conference held in January 1941, and commonly known, from its place of meeting, as the Malvern Conference. The aim of that Conference was to consider how far the Christian faith and principles based upon it afford guidance for action in the world of to-day. Accordingly the papers delivered as a basis for discussion were predominantly theological in the wider sense of the term -- the sense which it bears in the title of St. Thomas Aquinas' 'Summa Theologica' For we were more concerned to find the right starting point, and so to lay down sound principles, than to draw up anything resembling a political programme. ....The findings of the Conference were printed as early as possible, and can be obtained from the office of the Industrial Christian Fellowship ... They are not reprinted in this volume because it is thought that they may tend to draw attention to themselves and away from the arguments developed in the paper; or one or another may be associated with unwarrantable closeness with one or another of the papers. The object of this volume is to let a wider circle share the thoughts actually presented at Malvern; in other minds they may leader to other conclusions, or to a different balance of conclusions". -- Intro.
