Autorenporträt
Robert Lansing (1864–1928) was an American lawyer and statesman who served as the Secretary of State under President Woodrow Wilson from 1915 to 1920. Noted for his significant role during World War I, Lansing was a key figure in the formation of international policies and treaties in the turbulent post-war period. His scholarly legacy includes the book 'The Peace Negotiations', which offers an insightful account of the intricate diplomatic efforts that led to the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. This work is a reflection of Lansing's firsthand experiences and his nuanced understanding of international relations. Lansing's literary style in 'The Peace Negotiations' is marked by detailed narrative and analysis, shedding light on the complexities and challenges of crafting peace in the aftermath of global conflict. His writings not only serve as valuable historical documents but also contribute to the scholarly discourse on diplomacy and international law. The significance of Lansing's contributions is underlined by the continued study and citation of his works in academic circles. While his tenure as Secretary of State was sometimes marked by controversy, particularly in his relations with President Wilson, Robert Lansing's books, including his memoirs and writings on foreign policy, remain indispensable resources for historians and political scientists analyzing early twentieth-century international affairs.
