520 _aAn understanding of current inter A national affairs has become in recent years a necessity for every thinking man and woman. E. H. Carr, who was in the Foreign Office and Diplomatic Service from 1916 to 1936, has given in small compass a concise and readable account of the course of international relations from the peace of 1919 to the Second World War of 1939. The book is divided into four parts: the period of the Versailles Treaty and its enforcement, ending in the fiasco of Reparations and the Ruhr invasion; the period of pacification and optimism following the Locarno Treaty, during which the League of Nations attained the summit of its prestige; the period of crisis beginning with the economic breakdown and culminating in the Japanese adventure in Manchuria and the failure of the Disarmament Con ference; the period of the open repudia tion of the Versailles Treaty and the Covenant, leading up to the renewal of war. The book was first published in 1937 under the title International Relations Since the Peace Treaties. The present edition carries the narrative down to the outbreak of war on September 3, 1939.
