Munich’s Lessons for the Ukraine Crisis

Peter Harris | Mar 05, 2014

 
Harris take a long historical look at the crisis that unfolded in Munich in the late 1930s. Peter states, “It is inevitable that leaders and pundits alike will grasp for analogies when trying to make sense of complicated crises. When they do, the history must be studied with care and the correct lessons drawn. The biggest lesson from Munich is well-worn, almost clichéd, but it would be wrong to ignore the more subtle lessons of 1938.”
