The global impact of the First World War dominated the history of
the first half of the twentieth century. This major reassessment of
the origins of the war, based on extensive original research in
several countries, is the first full analysis of the politics of
armaments in pre-1914 Europe. David Stevenson directs attention
away from the Anglo-German naval race towards the competition on
land between the continental armies. He analyses the defence
policies of the Powers, and the interaction between the growth of
military preparedness and the diplomatic crises in the
Mediterranean and the Balkans that culminated in the events of
July-August 1914. Drawing on insights from political science, the
book offers a fresh conceptual framework for the origins of the
First World War, and provides a thought-provoking case-study of the
broader relationships between armaments and international conflict.
