  1. Postwar Issues World History 11/30/12

  2. After World War I • Three western democracies (Great Britain, France, United States) appeared powerful. • All three boosted hopes for democracy among the new nations of Eastern Europe.

  3. Underlying Problems • Postwar Europe faced problems. • The greatest problems were finding jobs for returning veterans and rebuilding war-ravaged lands. • Many nations also owed huge debts because they had borrowed to pay for the war. • Economic problems led to social unrest and made radical ideas more popular. • Many feared the spread of communism. • Some European countries were unhappy with peace settlements (Germany).

  4. Pursuit of Peace • 1920s: Diplomats worked hard for peace. • 1925: Representatives from seven European nations signed a series of treaties at Locarno, Switzerland. • Settled Germany’s disputed borders with France, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, and Poland. • Locarno treaties became the symbol of a new war.

  5. Pursuit of Peace • Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928: Every independent nation signed this agreement. • Promised to end war. • Many countries pursued disarmament, or the reduction of armed forces and weapons. • United States, Britain, France, Japan, and other nations signed treaties to reduce the size of their navies. • The League of Nations also put many at ease. Germany and the Soviet Union joined in the late 1920s.

  6. Obstacles to Peace • Difficult to enforce the Kellogg-Briand Pact. • League of Nation was also powerless to stop aggressors. • American refusal to join did not help the League of Nations. • Many leaders began to realize that the League of Nations was powerless. • Dictators rearmed their military forces.
