Woodrow Wilson and the Reimagining of Eastern Europe

Woodrow Wilson and the Reimagining of Eastern Europe, by Larry Wolff, was published by Stanford University Press in January 2020.

At the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, where the victorious Allied powers met to reenvision the map of Europe in the aftermath of World War I, President Woodrow Wilson’s influence on the remapping of borders was profound. This book traces how Wilson’s emerging definition of national self-determination and his practical application of the principle changed over time as negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference unfolded. Wolff exposes the contradictions between Wilson’s principles and their implementation in the peace settlement for Eastern Europe, and  sheds light on how his decisions were influenced by both personal relationships and his growing awareness of the history of the Ottoman and Habsburg empires.
