| dc.description.abstract-translated | In 1925 the Locarno Pact was formally signed in London, and the ‘Locarno Room’ remains one of the British Foreign Office’s main reception venues. As one of the chief architects of the Pact the British Foreign Secretary Austen Chamberlain was acclaimed for having changing the atmospherics of European international relations, transformed by the new ‘Spirit of Locarno’. The Pact did indeed resolve a number of issues arising from the postwar settlement for the continent, though many problems remained unresolved. For Britain, however, Locarno was only one component of an evolving post-First World War Grand Strategy. British diplomacy at Locarno illustrates the challenges that confront a power balancing both global and regional roles. Placing Locarno in a wider context helps to explain key aspects of British policy and how in turn these affected efforts to create a stable international order. | en |
