Interweaving historical investigation with legal analysis, Scott Keefertraces the British role in the development of naval arms control, outliningthe pragmatic Foreign Office approaches towards international law. By emphasizing what was possible within theexisting legal system rather than attempting to create radically powerfulinternational institutions, statesmen crafted treaties to exploit the uniquepace of naval construction. Utilizingpreviously-overlooked archival resources, this book investigates how the greatpowers exploited treaties as elements of national security strategies. The result is a fuller analysis of the HaguePeace Conferences, Anglo-German discussions, and lesser known regional agreementsfrom the American Great Lakes to South America, and a richer exploration ofpre-1914 diplomacy, providing insights into how a past generation perceivedquestions of war and defence. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | | 关键词 | Military history; First World War; Legal history; Global history; Diplomatic history | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-39645-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-81930-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-39645-3 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
