Summary "This book explores the nature of national humiliation and its impact on foreign policy, demonstrating that Germany's catastrophic reaction to its humiliation at the end of World War I was far from an anomaly. Instead it represents a broader pattern of international behavior in which states that have experienced humiliating events are more likely to engage in acts of international aggression aimed at restoring the state's image"-- Provided by publisher
