53 Constant uncertainty as to the nature of the new system in the minds of its participants contributed to the Congress system’s premature demise. 36 ● The International Theory of Leonard Woolf The second obstacle was that the Great Powers consistently failed to specify the area of competence of the quasi-legislature. Czar Alexander and his continental allies were of the opinion that it should be allowed to deal not only with questions pertaining to the relations between states but also their internal affairs.
As with all manifestos it contains a good deal of political rhetoric but little by way of detailed empirical or sociological analysis. In this respect Woolf ’s book is far superior. Porter claims that one of the main things that followed from the argument of Fabianism and the Empire was that ultimately a system of world government was needed to replace the obsolete nationalism of the nineteenth century. It was interest in this idea that culminated in International Government. But as we shall see, Woolf was nowhere near as ready as Shaw to write-off nationalism as a major force in international politics.
This provision was necessary because of the conservative nature of law. Strongly anticipating Carr’s analysis of law and peaceful change, Woolf argued that states whose interests were not invested in the status quo would not accept compulsory adjudication. 63 What was required was a method by which the status quo could, in certain circumstances, be upset in an orderly manner. Woolf vested this function in his International Conference. The second safeguard proposed by Woolf involved giving states some say on the type of tribunal before which their unresolved disputes would ultimately have to be brought.
