Enforced disarmament has often been ignored by historians,
diplomats, and strategic analaysts. Yet the democracies have
imposed some measure of disarmament on their enemies after every
major victory since 1815. In many cases, forced disarmament was one
of the most important, if not the most important, of their war
aims. The demilitarization of Germany and Japan, for example, was
one of the most significant post-war measures agreed by the Soviet
Union, Britain, and the USA in 1945, whilst the debate on the
disarmament measures imposed on Iraq after the Gulf War continues
to rage. The efficacy and durability of enforced disarmament
measures, and the resistance they are likely to encounter are thus
issues of central strategic and political importance. Philip Towle
examines the most important peace settlements from the time of
Napoleon to Saddam Hussein, in the first major history of this
fascinating subject.
