While most scholarship on appeasement focuses on its later stages in Europe – culminating in the Munich Agreement – policymakers and public intellectuals throughout the early and mid-1930s were exercised by appeasement in a different context. These prominent Britons, concerned by increasing international tensions and conscious of the resentments engendered by having a globe-spanning empire, sought to contrive some way to appease the revisionist powers without betraying their liberal internationalist principles or harming British national interests. At the center of these debates was Arnold J. Toynbee, director of studies at Chatham House. A devoted liberal internationalist, Toynbee was convinced that a durable peace could be built on appeasement in the context of ‘the colonial question’. This version of appeasement claimed that German interests and honour could be satisfied by finding some way to return Germany to Africa as an imperial power. But the debates over ‘the colonial question’ revealed the extent to which British and German conceptions of the issue diverged. They also demonstrated the inability of liberal internationalists to reconcile their commitment to changing an unsatisfactory status quo with their commitment to preventing the forceful revision of that same status quo; ‘peaceful change’ was therefore elusive.
虽然大多数关于绥靖政策的学术研究都集中在其在欧洲的后期阶段——以《慕尼黑协定》(Munich Agreement)为高潮——但整个20世纪30年代早期和中期,政策制定者和公共知识分子都在不同的背景下受到绥靖政策的影响。这些杰出的英国人担心日益加剧的国际紧张局势,并意识到拥有一个遍布全球的帝国所产生的怨恨,他们试图找到某种方法来安抚修正主义大国,同时又不背叛它们的自由国际主义原则,也不损害英国的国家利益。这些争论的中心人物是查塔姆研究所(Chatham House)研究主任阿诺德·汤因比(Arnold J. Toynbee)。汤因比是一名坚定的自由国际主义者,他相信在“殖民问题”的背景下,持久的和平可以建立在绥靖政策的基础上。这种版本的绥靖政策声称,德国的利益和荣誉可以通过找到某种方式让德国作为帝国力量重返非洲来满足。但是关于“殖民问题”的争论揭示了英国和德国在这个问题上的分歧程度。它们还表明,自由国际主义者既不能承诺改变不令人满意的现状,又不能承诺防止强行修改这一现状;因此,“和平变革”是难以捉摸的。
