The economic consequences of the Peace
Book • 1920
In this book, Keynes critiques the Treaty of Versailles, particularly its economic provisions, which he believed were overly punitive and would lead to widespread economic suffering and instability in Europe.
He argues that the treaty breached the principles of the Armistice agreement and the Fourteen Points, and that the reparations demanded from Germany were unrealistic and would have devastating economic consequences.
Keynes also provides a personal account of the key players at the Paris Peace Conference and predicts that the treaty's terms could sow the seeds for future conflicts.
