Exile in London
Author: Kathleen Brenda Geaney, Vít Smetana
13,60 €
A government in exile must advance the interests of a country whose territory it does not control. The English-language collection Exile in London examines this situation through Czechoslovakia and other occupied states during World War II. Editors Vít Smetana and Kathleen Brenda Geaney bring together international historical perspectives.
The focus is on diplomatic possibilities, military contributions, propaganda, and postwar plans. The available excerpt compares British influence on Polish, Czechoslovak, and Yugoslav representatives. The text is analytical in character and assumes an interest in the history of international relations.
This international collection examines London-based governments in exile in 1939–1945 and their scope for political action.
