Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from European International Relations Whether as regards the number of men engaged in it, or the destructive power of the weapons employed, or the variety and extent of the interests affected by it, the war which is now being waged in Europe is greater by far than any hitherto recorded in the annals of mankind. Its immediate cause was the murder of the Archduke of Austria at Serajevo. But this crime is in itself no explanation of its origin; and whatever may be its issues, they will not be concerned with the punishment of the deed of June the 28th. Its real cause lies deeper, and will be found, not in any single isolated event, but in a connected series of events, whose inner meaning has been revealed to us by the war itself, and by the circumstances that attended its actual outbreak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Relations The relations of nations and Of people to each other are de termined by the sum total of human progress and of the ideals which lead men to happier lives and more useful activities. In the march of civilization law-makers of necessity follow rather than lead. The great inventions which arouse the imagination are the pioneers. The mariner's compass pointed the way over the unknown seas and gave assurance that whatever course was taken might be retraced. To it and the spirit of adventure it aroused the world owes the conversion of the ocean from an impassable barrier, separating the continents into different worlds, to a great universal thoroughfare connecting every port of every land with every other port. Following the dis covery of America and the settlement of Europeans along its coasts came colonial problems to the statesmen of Europe and the necessity of changing their theories of rulership by arbi trary force for a system affording the people of the colonies some measure of liberty in the regulation of their affairs. With no means of communication between the two continents but sailing vessels, there was such partial isolation as induced the growth of new customs, modes of life and ideas of social te lations. In time these became so distinct and firmly established that the colonists would not submit to the ill-advised measures of the governments of the parent countries. The result was political separation and the organization in the western hemi sphere oi republican governments now numbering twenty-one.

This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diplomatic Europe Since the Treaty of Versailles IT needed but a few chapters to give the impression that this book was a complete survey Of the illusions and disillusions, the fevered strivings and the sterile struggles, which went to form the travail of Euro pean international life after the Great War. I have purposely refrained from writing these chapters, chiefly because I did not wish to touch, here, upon questions and episodes which might have led to the discussion of ideas or pretended ideas upon which, in other fields, I have Openly expressed my thought. Moreover, apart from any such personal feeling, it seemed to me premature, and therefore useless, to attempt to paint a general picture Of the whole; the postwar history Of Europe is still in the making. I have wished merely to add an historical contribution to that ensemble, by recording the as pect and the trend of some events to which I could partly bear personal witness. Such as they are, these pages do not seek to con ceal, although they may not proclaim, the political and moral ideals which were, and remain, my own.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of European Diplomacy 1815-1914 Now that foreign affairs are, as Disraeli said, merely Britain's domestic affairs in foreign parts, it is the duty of every citizen to know about them and to reflect upon them. Things apparently remote from foreign policy must be regarded in the light of our external relations as well as of our internal situation. And it is not merely the relations of Britain to other countries that the British citizen must know about he must understand the dealings of the other states of Europe and of the world with each other for the affairs of all the nations are so interwoven that no nation, and no part of any nation, can for a moment live unto itself.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to World Politics AT the beginning of the World War I wrote a book about the relations among the great powers during the years immediately preceding the assassination at Serajevo. The New Map of Europe dealt particularly with Near Eastern problems and wars and with the foreign policies of Russia, austria-hungary, Germany, and Italy in the events affect ing the Balkan States, the Ottoman Empire, Persia, and the countries on the. African littoral of the Mediterranean. The purpose of the book was to attempt to explain how the relations among the great powers were vitally influenced by the conflict of interests that arose in their diplomatic and economic activities in the regions formerly under the exclusive domination of the Ottoman sultans. The recep tion accorded The New Map of Europe encouraged me to complete the survey of contemporary international rela tions by writing The New Map of Africa in 1916 and The New Map of Asia in 1919. The latter two volumes outlined the development of European overlordship in Africa and Asia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The European Commonwealth: Problems Historical and Diplomatic The essays contained in this volume represent a selection from a much larger number contributed to quarterly and monthly Reviews during the last four years. They have been selected because, though not originally designed as steps in a coherent argument, they seem to possess a certain measure of unity and consistency. With one exception all have been written.since the outbreak of the war, and the single excep tion (chapter III) stands in at least as close a relation to recent events as the rest. Suggested though they were by successive aspects of the great struggle in which Europe and the world have been involved, the essays are the fruit of studies which have claimed a large portion of my time during the last thirty years.

Download or read book The Eastern Question written by J. A. R. Marriott and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eastern Question: An Historical Study in European Diplomacy 'The Eastern Question has by degrees assumed such large proportions that no one can be surprised at the space it occupies in all public discussions whether of the tongue or of the pen.' So Lord Stratford de Redcliffe wrote to The Times on September 9, 1876. His words testified to a notorious fact. The fact has not become less notorious during the forty years since the words were written nor have the proportions assumed by the Eastern Question become less ample. In view of these facts it is the more surprising that English Historical Literature should still lack any systematic and continuous account of the origin and development of the Eastern Question. Monographs exist in plenty on special aspects of the problem, and many general Histories of Europe contain useful chapters on the subject, but I do not know of any book in English which attempts the task which in the present work I have set before myself. The main lines of this book were laid down many years ago; the subject has formed part of my academic teaching; for this purpose my material has been under constant revision, and some of it has been utilized for articles recently contributed to the Edinburgh Review, the Fortnightly Review, and the Nineteenth Century and After. To the proprietors and editors of these Reviews I am indebted for permission to reproduce portions of my articles, but none of them are reprinted in extenso. Elsewhere, in the course of my protracted journey, I have come across traces of my own footsteps, indicating the route of previous historical excursions.

This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Diplomacy in the International Development of Europe, Vol. 1 Although special questions and particular periods of diplomatic history have been carefully studied and ably discussed by historical writers, it is a noteworthy fact that no general history of European diplomacy exists in any language. A history of diplomacy properly includes not only an account of the progress of international intercourse, but an exposition of the motives by which it has been inspired and the results which it has accomplished. But even this state ment does not fully express the scope of such a history; for an intelligent discussion of the subject must include also a consideration of the genesis of the entire international sys tem and of its progress through the successive stages of its development. Thus regarded, it becomes apparent that the whole fabric of present international relations is the result of past diplomatic activity.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Diplomacy in the International Development of Europe, Vol. 3 If this statement be true as regards national progress, it is more Obviously so regarding international develop ment. Here the personal note becomes predominant. All international relations are based upon the judgments and decisions Of sovereigns and statesmen. These policies may be good or bad, wise or unwise, but they are essentially products Of reflection. The reasons on which they are based may be dynastic or national, and may owe their origin to any Of the conditions that influence human action; but the action that results from them is the outcome Of the thought and feeling Of the time as manifested in those who direct public policy. Regarded from this point Of view, history has a new mean ing and a new value. We are no longer invited to take an interest in a succession Of events without relation to the great problems Of existence, or even to one another; such as the sequence of dynasties, the fatalities Of battles, and mere series Of dates that serve only to place occurrences in a definite chronological order. History becomes to us, in stead, the explanation Of progress or retrogression, as the case may be, in the attainment Of purposes that affect the condition Of man and society.

This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Revelations of European Diplomacy This little book has been written in the hope of aiding students of the World War and its causes to keep pace With the almost bewildering accumulation of material. It has grown out of a paper read to the British Institute of International Affairs on December 12, 1922, and published in the ?ozmml of the Institute for January, 1923. A reprint met with a considerable demand at home and abroad, and I have been pressed from many quarters to bring the survey up to date. The political and diplomatic revelations of the last four years are no less significant than those reviewed in the original address, and many of them remain unfamiliar to English readers. I have confined myself to publications subse quent to the outbreak of war, and illustrating the period from the accession of William II to the Treaty of Versailles. Magazine articles are only mentioned When they are of exceptional importance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Relations Some risk, however, will always remain of such a re sult until the nation, as a nation, seriously reflects on the true meaning of a foreign policy, and steadily determines the shape which such a policy shall assume. For this purpose, however, it requires information which it cannot easily derive from ordinary libraries. Such information it would be both foolish and presumptuous to attempt to supply in a little book of one hundred and sixty pages. But, even in such a book, it may be possible to indicate with some prec1s10n the change which has occurred in the foreign policy of this country through the change in its own position both in Europe and the world; and it may be easy to supplement this account with some description of the machinery by which the foreign policy of the country is regulated. Such an account may, per haps, make a few things intelligible, which at present it is hard to understand, and induce some people to take greater interest in affairs which at present they are too apt to leave to the management or mismanagement of professional statesmen.
