Abstract

This book explores the influence of Helmuth von Moltke, Germany's Chief of the General Staff between 1906 and 1914. Based largely on previously unknown primary sources, it analyses the General Staff's role in military decision-making and Moltke's relationship with Kaiser Wilhelm II, as well as the genesis of the Schlieffen Plan and Germany's military and political reactions to the many pre-war crises. Moltke's influence on Germany's political decision-making was decisive, helping to foster an increasingly confrontational mood. The book takes specific issue with the common perception of Moltke as an ineffectual and reluctant military leader, remembered primarily for the defeat at the Battle of the Marne and his alleged adulteration of the Schlieffen Plan. It concludes that he was both bellicose and ambitious, hoping for war 'the sooner the better' and playing a crucial role in the outbreak and early months of the First World War.

Abstract

Hans Adolf von Moltke (1884-1943) war als Vertreter der Weimarer Republik und des »Dritten Reiches« in Polen tätig. Während des Zweiten Weltkrieges beteiligte er sich am NS-Aktenraub im besetzten Europa und wurde 1943 Botschafter in Madrid. Hans Adolf von Moltke gehörte zu einer Familie, die einen namhaften Platz in der deutschen Geschichte innehatte: Zu seinen Vettern gehörten der Generalfeldmarschall Helmuth Carl Bernhard von Moltke und der Widerständler Helmuth James von Moltke. Bernard Wiaderny rekonstruiert die Persönlichkeit des Diplomaten Hans Adolf von Moltke, seine weltanschaulichen Ansichten und seine politische Verortung vor dem Hintergrund der prägenden Tendenzen seiner Zeit in Deutschland. Der Autor schildert, welche Ziele Moltke während seiner Tätigkeit als Vertreter Deutschlands in Polen verfolgte, welche Rolle er beim NS-Aktenraub spielte, was er während seiner Zeit als Botschafter in Madrid 1943 unternahm und was er über den Widerstand gegen das NS-Regime wusste. Für die Studie wurde ein umfassender Fundus an Quellen in Archiven in Deutschland, Polen, Großbritannien und den USA ausgewertet.

Abstract

The existence of the Schlieffen Plan has been one of the basic assumptions of 20th-century military history. Terence Zuber challenges this assumption and presents a different picture of German war planning between 1871 and 1914. He concludes that there never really was a Schlieffen Plan.

Abstract

Communism has had a profound impact on Europe from the mid-nineteenth century to the present. In theory, it promised equality and freedom for all. In practice, it spawned inegalitarian, authoritarian and, in some instances, monstrous regimes in East Europe. Ronald Kowalski re-examines the history of European Communism, from its theoretical origins in the work of Marx and Engels until the collapse of the Soviet Union, and explains why it failed to come to power in West Europe.
