Sumario:Following on from her acclaimed study of the collapse of international security during the early 1930's, Zara Steiner gives an account of the coming catastrophe. She shows that the era of Hitler's rise to power, an ascent bent on war, was founded on ideologies which the democratic perceptions could neither penetrate nor arrest.
This survey takes both European and East Asian conflicts into interlocking accounts. She refutes attempts to whitewash Mussolini; argues that Anglo-French military response in 1938 had realistic prospects; traces the global ramifications of the Sino-Japanese wars; and re-evaluates Moscow's diplomatic options. Zara Steiner shows that only Hitler regarded the Jewish question as of primary importance. --Book Jacket.
