Biography: historical, political & military; History; 20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000; Political ideologies

Every phase of the Third Reich's foreign policy was determined by its authoritarian leader, Adolf Hitler. Following his rise to power, his political acuity and utter lack of scruple enabled him to achieve numerous diplomatic successes against the well-intentioned but largely ineffectual Anglo-French democracies. First by duplicity, then by bluff and bluster, and finally by brinkmanship, Hitler succeeded in establishing a strengthened and united Greater Germany (Grossdeutschland) in preparation for a Second Great War. This book examines in depth the revanchist foreign policy of Hitler's Germany from 1933 to 1939: the withdrawal of Germany from the League of Nations, German rearmament, the introduction of compulsory military service and the enlargement of the German Armed Forces, the remilitarization of the Rhineland, the notorious Hossbach Conference, the Austrian 'Anschluss', the Munich Conference, the brazen seizures of Bohemia-Moravia and the Memel District, the Danzig crisis, the cynical brokering of the Nazi-Soviet Pact, and the German invasion of Western Poland.

Reviews for The Foreign Policy of the Third Reich: 1933-1939

"""Readers looking to expand their knowledge of Nazi Germany's international relations strategy in the increasingly dark days before World War II need look no further...Where most history books primarily focus on the military aspects of the conflict, this work instead explores Adolf Hitler's aggressive use of diplomacy, information and economic levers to further German national interests.""-- ""ARMOR Magazine"" ""Thomas Ferenczi has written a concise, primary-sourced, and fact-based history of Nazi Germany's foreign policy between 1933 and 1939.""-- ""New York Journal of Books"""
