The Economic Consequences of the Peace

Focusing on the aftermath of World War I, this work critiques the Treaty of Versailles and its economic implications for Europe. Keynes argues that the reparations imposed on Germany are excessively punitive and will lead to economic instability. He emphasizes the interconnectedness of national economies and warns that the treaty could foster resentment and future conflict. Through a blend of economic analysis and political insight, the book highlights the importance of fair peace settlements for long-term stability and prosperity.
