metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: This article focuses on the question of how the “images” of the Versailles peace treaty (1919)
  were used by Western experts to analyse the events of the end of the Cold War in 1989–1990
  and further international transformations in Europe in the 1990s. Though the scholarly
  literature on the history of the Versailles order and its historiography is rapidly growing,
  the problem of the “Versailles images” remains under-researched. The author underlines
  four key points seen by experts and political scientists to be similar between 1919 and 1989:
  the growing power of nationalism and separatism, transformation of the geopolitical and
  strategic situation in Europe, the new phase of globalization based on liberal and market
  principles, and finally, the rise of fears linked to the eventuality of the new revisionist power
  and the new global threats emerging. Based on analysis of the articles and publications of
  different experts and leaders of public opinion, the author concludes that their estimates
  often diverged from the opinions of professional historians of the interwar period. Political
  scientists exploited sometimes selectively separate features of the Versailles order in Europe
  to back up their points of view on the international trends of the 1990s. At the same time
  the ambivalence of scholars’ estimates correspond to the ambiguities of the Versailles treaty
  itself, where the new elements, such as the League of Nations and ideas of collective security,
  were mixed with the traditional repressive measures which winners tried to impose on losers
  throughout international history.
