Britain and the Occupation of Austria, 1943-45
Description
The relationship of policy to strategy is a central issue in international studies. Using the little known but highly relevant example of British planning for the occupation in 1945, this text provides a case study in the practicalities of liberating enemy territory. It looks at the way in which policy was developed and then reconciled with those of Britain's allies, how negotiations were directly affected by the existing and expected strategic situation, and how the military were involved in the reconstruction of Austria.
