Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. Like all the Lancaster Pamphlets, a short, concise and well-organised introduction to the historical debate on the origins of the First World War. My edition was from the early 80s which means that it may lack the benefit of more recent contributions to the debate. It lays a greater emphasis on the Fishcer thesis (which puts the blame for the war squarely on Germany) than some contemporary historians might be comfortable with. Still, its a worthy read and a good overview to several sides of the debate. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

There is an enormous literature on the origins of the First World War. This pamphlet focuses on the major issues involved in the topic and assesses the validity of the different interpretations advanced. Beginning with the legacy of Bismarck's diplomacy between 1871 and 1890, Ruth Henig surveys the roots of the conflict and outlines the assassination crisis which led to war in August 1914, looking especially at the factors which influenced individual countries to mobilize their armed forces. She goes on to consider how the long-term factors leading up to the crisis of 1914 and the crisis itself have been interpreted by successive generations of historians since 1919, including the recent arguments concerning German responsibility for the outbreak of war.
