general strikes, militant ones in britain. in canada. so there were troubles around the world and i think there was a very real fear that 1918 was not the end of something, it was the beginning of another even more dreadful period in human history. and so i think wilson was absolutely right to go to paris. i think where he made a mistake was in the way he chose his delegation. he did not include any republicans. well, a nominal republican and paid absolutely no attention to. and this, i think, was wrong. he also fought the 1918 congressional election as a vote of confidence in himself. he made the making of peace a partisan affair and i think again you can criticize him for that and striking that fdr in 1945 made sure that any peace arrangements he made, any international conferences he went to before he died in 1945 bipartisan, he had bipartisan support for what he was trying to do. i think wilson was right to go to paris. he has been blamed ever since for much that went wrong. i mean, the many views of wilson in paris. there's wilson t

that britain, france, spain, and portugal governed by consent, not by force. that is true enough in many ways. but consent is based on a realistic assessment of alternatives. and guns, like ideas, can profoundly change those assessments. firearms exercise power over the immaterial as well as the material. they reconfigure wills and imaginations as well as bodies. and they do this by changing people's calculations of what they are willing endure, risk, and imagine for the future. the second reason that the arms trade matters is that it bound up three independence wars in dependent relationships. in a nutshell, my argument today is that neither the haitian revolution nor the spanish-american wars for independence could have possibly prevailed without the free trade in arms that came from the u.s., which was itself a neglected but extremely important consequence of the american revolution. prior to the american revolution, a tangle of formal rules, informal structures, and historic legacies made it impossible for even the wealthiest of colonists in the new world
