The Justification of the War in the Conditions of the Pacification of International Relations after the First World War

Summary/Abstract: The end of First World War contributed to the enhancement of two new trends – 1) the intensification of national liberation/anti-colonial movements and 2) the active involvement of the public in international policy. Therefore, in the activity of leading Nations was an urgent need to redefine its policy towards other States and territories. Its essence consisted in maneuvering between the traditional violent methods of foreign policy activities (as more usual, giving a quick result), the proclaimed principles of the new international order and challenges to the reality. The task of creating in post-war European society a benevolent attitude to aggression is becoming a major activity in States. To achieve this goal are determined by the new target audience (e.g. women, veterans, youth), new symbols (for example, "the Unknown Soldier"), and new psychological and personal arguments.
