Synopsis
A clear plan for steering postwar Europe This excerpt presents a practical argument for forming a minimum peace programme before negotiations end, to align Allied aims and prevent afterwar chaos. It also outlines why public opinion and accountable leadership matter in shaping durable peace.
The author argues that waiting to discuss terms can lead to fatigue, opportunism, or pro-German tactics. A pre-set programme with guarantees would help demobilize armies and guard against last?minute concessions, while keeping the path to peace clear for all Allied peoples.
- Learn why a minimum peace programme could guide negotiations and ensure commitments are kept.
- See how potential German tactics might threaten the peace and how to guard against them in advance.
- Explore ideas for reshaping Europe after the war, including new regional alignments and national visions.
- Understand the role of informed public opinion and democratic leadership in steering a fair settlement.
Ideal for readers of policy analysis, wartime history, and grand-scale strategic thinking who want a grounded view of how peace might be planned rather than left to chance.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book makes the case that only by imposing considerable sanctions and punishments upon the Central Powers can the risk of future world wars be reduced. The author argues that the German people, led by their leaders, chose to wage war against their neighbors and thus must be held accountable for the destruction and loss of life that has resulted. The author also argues that it is imperative to dismantle the German war machine and redraw borders to reduce the risk of future conflicts. While the book was written during World War I, the premise is relevant to any geographic region that has experienced a violent and destructive war. The author emphasizes that only through severe consequences can peace be solidified and nations can be prevented from engaging in future wars.
