Aspects of British Policy and the Treaty of Versailles

Aspects of British Policy and the Treaty of Versailles looks at some key issues involving British policy and the Treaty of Versailles, one of the twentieth centurys most controversial international agreements.

The book discusses the role of experts and the Danzig Question at the Paris Peace Conference; the establishment of diplomatic history as a field of academic research; and the role of David Lloyd George and his vision of post-war Europe. Contributors also look at the restitution of cultural objects in German possession, and after the war, the Treatys impact on both Britains enemy, Germany, and its ally, France, revealing how it profoundly affected the European balance of power.

Aspects of British Policy and the Treaty of Versailles will be of great interest to scholars of diplomatic history, as well as modern history and international relations more generally. The chapters were originally published as a special issue of Diplomacy & Statecraft.

B. J. C. McKercher is Professor of International History at the University of Victoria. He writes on modern British foreign policy and has been editor of Diplomacy & Statecraft since 2007.

Erik Goldstein is Professor of International Relations and History at Boston University. Many of his publications relate to the Paris Peace Conference era. He is the founding editor of Diplomacy & Statecraft.
