In October 1920, the International Economic Conference in London gathered invitees to review post-war Europe's ravaged economies. Speakers included economists and representatives from various European aid and reconstruction groups. The talks offered a mix: some presented data on production and inflation, while others detailed the widespread misery of disease, famine, and poverty. The conference aimed to identify areas for relief or economic stimulation. The book's modern value lies in its depiction of the enormous economic and social devastation caused by four years of war. - Summary by Ted LienhartCopyright Children's Fiction Genre アート 世界 文学史・文学批評 社会科学
