This historical survey of Quakers in the United States and their responses to war from World War I through the Vietnam conflict demonstrates that Quakers responses to war resulted from internal struggles and the influence of the state. This historical survey of Quakers in the United States examines their responses to war during World War I World War II and the early Cold War including the Korean and Vietnam conflicts with particular focus on the social political legal and theological aspects of the Quaker peace testimony. Quakers responded to these conflicts in a variety of ways ranging from pacifism to support for military action. The boundaries and constraints of Quaker beliefs about violent conflict and the meaning of the peace testimony were determined by debates within the Religious Society of Friends. Isaac Barnes May asserts that Quakers reactions to war in the twentieth-century should also be understood as closely related to Quakerism s relationship to state power. The choice to accommodate or resist government pressure worked alongside internal forces to shape Quakerism in the United States. Ultimately May argues that there is no single pattern of Quaker response to modern war.
