This study examines what led the leaders of Austria-Hungary and
Germany to launch major military offensives at the beginning of the
First World War. The focus is on understanding why these two
countries adopted high-risk offensive strategies during an
international confrontation rather than a defensive military
stance. The decision to attack or defend did not occur in a
political vacuum. The leaders of Austria-Hungary and Germany
adopted offensive strategies as a way to achieve their political
ambitions. The offensives undertaken by Austria-Hungary and Germany
in 1914 thus reflected their political goals as well as the
strategic doctrines of war planners. The concluding chapter of this
study explores why deterrence failed in 1914.
