The Economic Consequences of the Peace is a book written by John Maynard Keynes in 1919. It is a critique of the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I. Keynes argues that the treaty was too harsh on Germany and that it would have devastating economic consequences for Europe. The book was a bestseller and had a major impact on the debate over the treaty.
Keynes's main argument is that the treaty was based on the assumption that Germany was solely responsible for the war. This assumption, he argues, is false. Keynes points out that all of the major powers were involved in the war and that Germany was not the only one to blame. He also argues that the treaty was too harsh on Germany economically. The reparations payments that Germany was required to make were so large that they would have crippled the German economy.
Keynes's predictions about the economic consequences of the treaty proved to be accurate. The German economy was devastated by the reparations payments and the country was plunged into a deep depression. The depression led to political instability and ultimately to the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party.
The Economic Consequences of the Peace is a classic work of economics. It is a powerful indictment of the Treaty of Versailles and a warning about the dangers of economic nationalism. The book is still relevant today, as the world grapples with the economic consequences of the global financial crisis.
