What is Appeasement?

Answer 1

Generally speaking, appeasement is a foreign policy term that speaks to a nations relationships to other nations. A nation with a foreign policy of appeasement usually infers that certain types of unruly behavior is allowed by other nations as a way to maintain peace, rather than confrontation other than dialogues concerning the situation. The classic example of this appeasement policy is the way France and England allowed Nazi Germany to break the Treaty of Versailles and other situations. The Allies, France and England, went along or appeased Hitler in order to avoid a war. If appeasement is practiced where issues are minor, then perhaps accommodation is a better term.

Answer 3

Appeasement is giving in to a request or demand in order to avoid confrontation. It is the granting of concession in order to maintain peace, or in other words appeasement is peace through negotiation.

Neville Chamberlain introduced this policy in negotiating with Adolf Hitler, which helped the German leader's rise to power. This happened in 1933 before the outbreak of the Second World War (which began in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland and Britain finally declared war). The Munich Pact agreed to let Germany take over parts of Czechoslovakia.

This failure to confront tyranny gave the word "appeasement" its modern connotation, in which appeasement is basically giving a bully what he wants in order for him to leave you alone. Appeasement in more political terms is dealing a tyrant or dictator favors in order to be left a neutral party.

Many countries in Europe during WWII gave Hitler land or control in order to be spared (so they thought) from involvement in the military conflict.
Placation, or giving in to someone's wishes.

Answer 4

Appeasement is when one party gives into the demands of a different more aggressive party in the hope and dream that caving to these demands will result in a cessation of aggression. It almost consistently fails, but is entered into because the non-aggressive party does not want to spend the energy and the blood to stop the aggressive party.

Appeasement is generally used for such actions in regards to foreign policy, such as the infamous appeasement of Nazi German Leader Adolf Hitler by British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain in 1938 in an attempt to prevent World War II by sacrificing the Czech Republic. However, it can also be used in interpersonal relations.
