What reading level is The Ethics of Force book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
42 THE ETHICS OF FORCE shout with the crowd. For all practical purposes they might as well hold the popular view. Now, I concede that the good citizen cannot, under any easily imaginable circumstances, actively oppose his government, however he may believe it to be in the wrong. He cannot refuse his share of the burdens which war brings upon the nation, nor can he give aid and comfort to the enemy. But he is not under obligation to stultify himself or to conceal his convictions. It is precisely... at such times as we are considering that temperate but earnest expression of opinion may aid in bringing about a healthier public sentiment. Those who really love their country ought to be willing to be placed with the minority, to bear obloquy and persecution, if necessary, in following what they believe to be for its best interests. To acquiesce in an unrighteous war, approving it in appearance and in word, with a mental reservation and a promise when it is over to do what they can to discourage future wars, is cow- ardice or imbecility.
