This book boldly challenges conventional wisdom about the value of preventive war. Arguing against the belief that Britain could have contained Germany and avoided war if it had used force when Hitler remilitarized the Rhineland, the author uses this dramatic event to wrestle with a general strategic problem that has broad relevance for our current foreign policy dilemmas. Beginning with the rise of German power and the French and British response to the Rhineland crisis leading to World War II, Scott Silverstone overturns the common impulse to point an accusing finger at British leadership for its alleged na vet , willful blindness, or outright cowardice.
There has been surging Silverstone argues that the Rhineland crisis is a critical case for studying a central dynamic of world history--power shifts among states--and the preventive war temptation that power shifts frequently produce.
