In 1950, the possibility of another world war frightened Europe and the World Peace Council was established, partly in response to that fear. A World Peace Congress was scheduled for November of that year, to take place in Sheffield, England, but was later shifted to Warsaw, Poland. The two speeches in the current booklet were given by author and co-founder of the Union of Soviet Writers Aleksandr Fadeev (1901 - 1956) and journalist, historian and revolutionary Ilia Ehrenburg (1891 - 1967). Some of the subjects they touched on included the role of the United Nations Organization, the then present horrors in Korea, the confidence in the future, etc. Very good .
