In tracing the diplomatic activity of foreign minister Jo?zef Beck, it discusses six general problems: (1) the Polish political situation under the pressure of appeasement; (2) the project of Intermarium and efforts to implement it; (3) the action against Czechoslovakia and the conflict with the Soviet Union; (4) the Polish attitude towards the German concept of Gesamtlosung in Germany's relations with Poland; (5) the genesis of the Polish alliance with Great Britain; (6) the Allies' military inaction after Nazi Germany's aggression. In these conditions, Poland made four key decisions: it stood against Czechoslovakia, it rejected German demands, it allied itself with the United Kingdom, and it rejected the Soviet Union's claim for the Red Army to march across Polish lands. 410 0$aPolish Studies - Transdisciplinary Perspectives 517 $aPoland and the Origins of the Second World War 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xDiplomatic history 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zPoland 606 $aDiplomatic history$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01905576 607 $aPoland$2fast 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xDiplomatic history. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 615 7$aDiplomatic history. 676 $a940.53438 700 $aJames$b Chris$01735744 701 $aShannon$b Alex$01252337 701 $aKornat$b Marek$01735745 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910846983603321 996 $aPoland and the Origins of the Second World War$94155098 997 $aUNINA
