Product Description
The First World War Peace Settlements explores the international consequences of the ending of the First World War. The First World War changed the face of Europe. Two empires, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire, collapsed in its wake and as a result many of the boundaries of Europe were redrawn and new states were created. The origins of many of the international crises in the late twentieth century can be traced back to decisions taken in these critical years. Many studies concentrate on the Treaty of Versailles of 1919 but Erik Goldstein deals with all the peace treaties and international agreements worked out between 1919 and the Locarno Pact of 1925. He also covers the international community's ambigious relations with Soviet Russia, events in the Eastern Mediterranean and the European powers' relations with Japan and China. The author also examines the international organizations and practices which came into existence at this time. For example the establishment of a Permanent Court of International Justice, the creation of an International Labor Organization, the principle of war crimes, and the idea of arms control. There is also an examination of the League of Nations. As with all books in the Seminar Studies in History series, there is a section of documents, chronologies, a Who's Who and maps. For readers interested in World War I, 20th Century Europe, the history of diplomacy or international relations.
