She examines the efforts that failed but also those which gave hope for future promise that are usually underestimated, if not ignored. She also shows that a degree of stabilization was achieved even though it was fragile, incomplete, and did not last through the 1929-1933 period 410 0$aOxford history of modern Europe. 606 $aReconstruction (1914-1939) 607 $aEurope$xHistory$y1918-1945 607 $aEurope$xPolitics and government$y1918-1945 615 0$aReconstruction (1914-1939) 676 $a940.5 700 $aSteiner$b Zara$0480787 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820936803321 996 $aThe lights that failed$94076103 997 $aUNINA
