The French Foreign Office and the Origins of the First World War, 1898-1914 de M. B. Hayne

The French Foreign Office and the Origins of the First World War, 1898-1914

Autor M. B. Hayne
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 mar 1993
This is the first full scholarly history of the French Foreign Ministry - the Quai d'Orsay - in the years between the Fashoda Crisis and the First World War. In an intensively researched study, M. B. Hayne examines the bureaucratic machinery of the Quai d'Orsay, its policies, and its personnel. He explores the ideas and influence of leading diplomats and administrators, their prejudices, and their aims; and traces the often complex relationships between successive Foreign Ministers and the functionaries of the Quai d'Orsay. His analysis throws much new light on French policy and actions during the July Crisis, and makes a significant contribution to the debate over the origins of the First World War.

Recenzii

`splendid study ...This is an engrossing study of the minds and relationships of a foreign policy elite.'Journal of Military History, Vol 57 No 4, October 1993
'thorough and meticulously researched monograph ... Dr Hayne draws upon an impressive array of public and private archival sources and relates in great detail the history of the Quai d'Orsay and its agents between 1898 and 1914 ... a challenging thesis. It is also a timely reminder of the importance of diplomats and the machinery of diplomacy in deciding the destinies of nations.'Keith A. Hamilton, Diplomacy & Statecraft, Vol. 5, No. 2, July '94
'Making extensive use of unpublished material in the Quai d'Orsay and elsewhere, in particular private papers of officials and diplomats and career dossiers, Hayne illuminates important issues ... Hayne has made better use of recently available French sources than French historians themselves, and deserves considerable credit for this volume.'F.V. Parsons, University of Glasgow, The International History Review, XVI, 4: November 1994
It is based on an impressive examination of French and some British private papers...Hayne's book is a kind micro-"bureaucratic politics" approach....Hayne's work is a veritable encyclopedia of personalities in the Quai d'Orsay before the First World. It will be of use to historians of French foreign policy before and after 1914, because apart from personalities, Hayne's work recalls the continuity in French diplomacy before and after the First World War.
