The Economic Consequences of the Peace

This vintage book contains John Maynard Keynes's 1919 treatise, 'The Economic Consequences of the Peace'. The book was written and published after Keynes attended the Versailles Conference as a British delegate, where he argued for a more generous peace settlement. This book, containing his thoughts apropos this subject, became a best-seller throughout the world and was pivotal in engendering a public opinion that the Versailles Treaty was a ''Carthaginian peace''. The chapters of this book include: 'Introductory', 'Europe Before the War', 'The Conference', 'The Treaty', 'Reparation', 'Europe After the Treaty', and 'Remedies'. We are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition, complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
