Problem of Foreign Policy (Routledge Revivals)

<p>First published in 1921 Gilbert Murray’s treatise considers a largely euro-centric foreign policy during the inter-war period. Believing passionately in the prospect of a Liberal England and the hope promised by the League of Nations with Britain at its centre Murray argues that a secure future can only be obtained through ‘equal law good government and good faith’. Concentrating on a number of country-based studies the main focus is on how to avoid the causes of international war; Murray supports the International Financial Commission’s recommendation that this could be partly achieved through disarmament and freedom of trade. This is a fascinating title that will be of particular value to history students researching the inter-war period and the League of Nations. </p>
