This collection of specially commissioned essays seeks for the first time to put the Boer War (1899–1902) in its international context. Each of the core chapters focuses on the perspective of one country (France, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, and the United States) and assesses the extent to which each national government tried to capitalize on Britain's embarrassment and distraction while often entangled in imperialist ventures of their own. The Anglophobia of many of the nations' press, the activities of pro-Boer organizations, and the shaping of public and parliamentary opinion are examined alongside the real politics and diplomatic considerations that took precedence. In addition there are summation chapters that examine both the origins of the war and its legacy for Britain's expansionist ambitions. Together these essays present the latest findings on a watershed in international relations that heralded substantive changes of attitude and policy on the part of national governments towards their dependencies and had far-reaching consequences for alliance systems and the international balance of power at the start of the twentieth century.South African War, 1899-1902InfluenceSouth African War, 1899-1902Diplomatic historyGreat BritainForeign relations1901-1910South AfricaForeign relations1836-1909South African War, 1899-1902Influence.South African War, 1899-1902Diplomatic history.968.04/8Wilson Keith M(Keith Malcolm),1944-1619837UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910809167503321The international impact of the Boer War3952281UNINA
