In this carefully constructed critical essay, written in 1894, Tolstoy admonishes a government that wages war by arousing patriotic fervor and a Church that supports such a government’s policies. His argument—that war and patriotism have nothing in common with the Christian principles of nonviolence and nonresistance—continues to resound today.
