“Central-Eastern Europe between the two world wars”, written by Joseph Rothschild, is the ninth volume of the series of 11 volumes written on history of Central Eastern Europe. Each book in the series provides the study of a specific time period in a different historical context, and this particular volume focuses on the countries of Central and Eastern Europe in the interwar period. The book is packed with detailed information about each nation-state established in a particular period and seeks to identify important political and socioeconomic issues experienced in the region. It is useful to remember that the series to which the book under review belongs aims to provide the volumes as a single complete work as opposed to a collection of books written with different approaches. All books in the series, as well as this particular book written by Rothschild, look at each country separately and try to address the specific problems of the country or nation. I should note that this book was published in 1974 and at that time only a limited number of books had been written dealing with the history of Central and Eastern Europe between the two world wars. Although historical books existed, these did not include the entire region of Central and Eastern Europe. They were mostly concentrated only in a specific territory and written by historians and scholars who lived there. The interwar period and the evaluation of each country separately are significant both politically and economically. Therefore, the book is important for any scholar or researcher who wants to learn about the events that occurred in the interwar period from a less biased perspective. However, despite the considerable size of the book and... half of the paper... the influence of the Soviet Union was due solely to the fact that the countries had no better choice among the great powers than the Soviet Union. Russia and Germany. It may be one of the reasons why Rothschild thinks that the most important part of the interwar period is countries gaining their sovereignty which would make them not dependent on a great power like the Soviet Union. Additionally, the book was published by the University of Washington, which has been a major public research university throughout history. This fact could also contribute to the book's point of view regarding the Soviet Union. However, it is always difficult for historical works and interpretations to escape the political interests of a country. Therefore, the audience must keep this fact in mind when reading any type of historical interpretation, including this one in particular.
