THEORY

We were chosen classical realism in this research. We were chosen idea from Thucydides

for related the research. The classical realist lineages begin with Thucydides representation of

politics as a law of human behavior. The drive for power and the will to dominate are held to be

fundamental aspect of human nature. The behavior of the state as a self-seeking egoist is

understood to be merely a reflection of the characteristic of the people that compromise the state.

It is human natures that explain why international politics is necessary power politics.

Characteristic of classical realism is its adherent’s belief in the primordial character of

power and ethic. Classical realism is fundamentally about the struggle for belonging, a struggle

that is often violent. Patriotic virtue is required in order for communities to survive in this

historic battle between good and evil, a virtue that long predates the emergence of sovereignty.

Based nation community in the middle seventeenth century.

The big idea of Thucydides is international politics is driven by an endless struggle for

power, which has its roots in human nature. Justice, law, and society have either no place or are

circumscribed. Thucydides was the historian of the Peloponnesian war, a conflict between two

great powers in the ancient Greek world, Sparta and Athens. Thucydides exploitations of

underlying cause of the war was the growth of Athenian power and the fear which this cause in

Sparta. Thucydides make it clear that Sparta national interest, like that of all states, was survival,

and the charging distribution of power represented a direct threat to its existence. Sparta was,

therefore, compelled by necessity to go to war in order to forestall being vanquished by Athens.

Thucydides also makes it clear that Athens feet equally compelled to pursue power in order to

preserve the empire it had enquired.

Therefore, clearly cause in context treaty of Versailles, Germany was launching the war

because went freedom and get back their power. This is some method can use archive power

back after diplomatic method. We look spirit the unemployment Germany people is higher after

Hitler offer to join NAZI party to get back their right back. Germany launch war because went

justice from country was pull their power on treaty. We look, the treaty is not balance because

were effect decreases at Germany at all factor. Example, after their territory was loss, their

economic was decreases because main source of economic was loss and control at another

power. This is related which Peloponnesian war, Sparta launch war to Athens because injustice

power.

LEVEL OF ANALYSIS

We were use waltz model in level of analysis we research. We was use waltz level of analysis for

analysis the causes of World War II. Waltz searched for the causes of war at three different level

of analysis. First is the level of the individual, second level of the state and third is the level of

the systemic.

Level of individual

The main character in cause of world war II because treaty of Versailles is Adolf Hitler.

The Treaty of Versailles led to the rise of fascism and Hitler in Germany. Hitler established the

NAZI party in year 19191. He was an ardent nationalist as were many Germany, as a result of

how weak the treaty of Versailles had made their nation.2 Hitler was a very charismatic person

who was able to gain massive support by denouncing the treaty of Versailles and the Weimar

republic that German people hated so much.3 Hitler was the culmination of what the Germany

people wanted when he told a storm trooper “I’ll get rid of Versailles….”4 The Germany people

believed he would and on January 30, 1933, Hitler becomes chancellor of Germany. Hitler took

steps to begin to restore the military power that Treaty of Versailles had taken away when

announced the restoration of enlistment and the expansion of the Germany army.5 He created the

naval pact with Britain allowed Germany naval strength to be expended until it thirty five

percent of British naval establishment.6 Hitler reverses the provision of the treaty of Versailles

when he ordered that the Rhineland be re militarized.7 Hitler accomplished part of this goal by

annexing Austria in March 1938.8 Hitler succeeds continued when Germany was given the

Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia in the Munich agreement in September 1938.9 Finally, Hitler

made one more attempt to truth end the restriction put on Germany by the treaty of Versailles

when he invaded Poland to get back the polish corridor and then world war II began two day

later.10

Level of state

The main state of cause the World War II in treaty of Versailles is German. The treaty of

Versailles forced Germany to lose territory, caused serious economic problem which were only

worsened by the depression of the 1930, left thousands of Germany outside of German, and these

entire thing created German resentment forward the western world. The effect of the treaty of

Versailles weakened Germany government. Certain part of the countries of the territory was used

to from new countries. Next, Germany military power also include in treaty of Versailles.

Germany was allowed an army of one hundred thousand and a navy of fifteen thousand.11 Under

the treaty Germany wasn’t allowed an air force, armored cars, tanks, heavy gun, submarine or

dirigible.12 Then, the treaty of Versailles laid Germany solely responsible for World War 1 and

ordered that Germany pay the entire cost of it through an undefined amount of reparation. The

economic Germany also decreases because main economic of Germany are coal and iron was

loss and was take because the treaty. Many factories were close and people unemployment.

While the treaty of Versailles was successful in making Germany weak, its terms would later

lead to World War II

Level of systemic

In context systemic, we can look the state involve in treaty of Versailles. Firstly, after the

Germany territory was took and distributed it to other countries like the Saar Basin and Upper

Silesia was given to France and Poland respectively13. Another territory are alsacelorraine, Eupe-

malmedy and North Schleswig was took by France, Belgium and Denmark respectively.14 This

was make the state was more power and rich because economy of Germany at territory was their

control and conquer. While in Germany, was make Germany feel disappointed and want to take

back the territory. Germany was launch war at the country. This was made the country not

stabilize and uncontrolled. A South African statesman named Jan Christian Smuts wrote to Prime

Minister David Lloyd Goerge, “this treaty breathes a poisonous spirit of revenge, which may yet

scorch the fair face not of a corner of France but of Europe.”15 Alfred Lord Milner, the British

colonial secretary, called the treaty of Versailles “the peace to end peace.”16 All of these men

correctly described the treaty of Versailles, but they would not know that until 193917
