Literally "Belligerence and Politics". In the First World War Ludendorff was the 'brains' of the Hindenburg-Ludendorff team, the architect of the great victories on the Eastern Front in 1914, the man who by 1916 was making personnel, economic and foreign policy decisions in place of the feckless kaiser. He determined the strategy on the Western Front that staked all on the massive offensive of the spring of 1918. Following its disastrous failure he managed to divest himself of responsibility.
