This controversial study analyzes the disarmament policies of successive British governments from 1919 to 1934 and challenges the common view that Britain occupied the high moral ground by drastically reducing its armaments. Carolyn J. Kitching argues that, during this period, British disarmament policy was reactive and that the policy-makers' strategy was to avoid their international obligations for as long as possible.
