England and Spain are in such intimate relation to the AustroHungarian-Italian treaties that they are dealt with together. The work will be terminated by a condensed review of AustroHungarian treaty policy in the years 1879-1914.

These studies have no relation to the present political situation. Least of all are they intended to throw new light on that often mooted and, to my thinking, unprofitable question regarding the amount of guilt to be apportioned to various persons or various nations for the outbreak of the World War. On the other hand, I shall be genuinely pleased if my work, after its completion, should be regarded as a contribution- no matter how modest - to the knowledge of the deep-lying causes which led to the mighty struggles of these last years.

I take this occasion to offer my sincere thanks to former Secretary of State of Foreign Affairs Dr. Otto Bauer, to the two officials in charge of the Department of Archives, Hofrat Professor Dr. Oswald Redlich and Professor Dr. Ludo Moritz Hartmann, and in particular to Vice-Director Sektionsrat Professor Dr. Ludwig Bittner, for the assistance they rendered me in my task.
