O knihe

OF INTEREST TO: readers of 20th-century history, students of economics

I do not admit error in having based The Economic Consequences of the Peace on a literal interpretation of the Treaty of Versailles, or in having examined the results of actually carrying it out. I argued that much of it was impossible; but I do not agree with many critics, who held that, for this very reason, it was also harmless.
-from "The State of Opinion"

Almost immediately after its ratification, it became clear that the Treaty of Versailles, ending World War I, was at least partly unworkable-and in this 1922 work, famed economist John Maynard Keynes dissected the problems he saw as the Treaty was being put into practice.

In what he called a sequel to his 1919 book The Economic Consequences of the Peace, Keynes discusses:

. the debate over German reparations
. the legality of occupying Germany east of the Rhine
. the division of reparations among the allies
. how to best handle inter-ally debt
. and more...

British economist JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES (1883-1946) also wrote The End of Laissez-Faire (1926), The Means to Prosperity (1933), and General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936).
