World War I left in its wake an unparalleled amount of international debt. Within a period of 5 years a larger sum of international obligations existed than had been built up by ordinary processes during the whole of the preceding century. These debts were, moreover, inter-governmental in character and resulted almost wholly from the destructive processes of war. At the end of the war there was surprisingly little realization in the world of the all-pervasive and far-reaching political and economic implications of the war debts. Originally published in 1927, this book discusses the amount and origin of each of the debts; the nature of the various negotiated settlements; the changes in national policies which occurred and the issues which remained unresolved at the time of publication.

Originally published in 1925, this volume was written at a time when the cost of living was rising in France and the currency of the Franc was declining. Uneasiness over possible national bankruptcy or financial disintegration was increasing. The book reveals the true financial situation in France and outlines a plan for the restoration of sound financial and economic conditions. As well as discussing the economy of post-World War I France the book also touches on the social and political problems of the time.
