Título: The Consequences of the Peace
Autor: Alan Sharp
Sinopse: The Versailles Settlement, at the time of its creation a vital part of the Paris Peace Conference, suffers today from a poor reputation: despite its lofty aim to settle the worlds affairs at a stroke, it is widely considered to have paved the way for a second major global conflict within a generation. Woodrow Wilsons controversial principle of self-determination amplified political complexities in the Balkans, and the war and its settlement bear significant responsibility for boundaries and related conflicts in todays Middle East. After almost a century, the settlement still casts a long shadow. This revised and updated edition of The Consequences of the Peace sets the ramifications of the Paris Peace treatiesfor good or illwithin a long-term context. Alan Sharp presents new materials in order to argue that the responsibility for Europes continuing interwar instability cannot be wholly attributed to the peacemakers of 191923. Marking the centenary of World War I and the approaching centenary of the Peace Conference itself, this book is a clear and concise guide to the global legacy of the Versailles Settlement.
