When studying the origins of the First World War, scholars have
relied heavily on the series of key diplomatic documents published
by the governments of both the defeated and the victorious powers
in the 1920s and 1930s. However, this volume shows that these
volumes, rather than dealing objectively with the past, were used
by the different governments to project an interpretation of the
origins of the Great War that was more palatable to them and their
country than the truth might have been. In revealing policies that
influenced the publication of the documents, the relationships
between the commissioning governments, their officials, and the
historians involved, this collection serves as a warning that even
seemingly objective sources have to be used with caution in
historical research.
