We read two articles. One from Annika Mombauer. She offered criticism on the article of Terence Zuber. According to Mombauer there was a Schlieffen Plan. Which was adapted by Moltke to be put to use. The we have Terence Zuber who claims that Germany was never able to put the Schlieffen Plan to use.]]> 2021-11-21 13:12:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1904385196 jenske99 https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1904403589  Let's give an explanantion of the Schlieffen Plan.

The Schlieffen Plan was made by Alfred von Schlieffen in 1905. He was the general staff of Germany. He created a war plan in which Germany could win a succesful two-front war. Moltke the succesor of von Schlieffen altered the Schlieffen Plan so it could be used during the First World War.

Annika Mombauer states that there was a Schlieffen Plan and that Moltke did alter it.
Terence Zuber explained in his thesis that there was a Schlieffen plan it just was never used because Germany did not have enough divisions to put the plan into practice]]> 2021-11-21 13:33:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1904407261 Video jenske99 https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1906042887 Here is a link to the epic debate between Terence Zuber and Annika Mombauer.

  • There was a Schlieffen-plan
  • It was an offensive war plan
  • Germany had a decisive position in instigating WWI 
  • The Moltke-plan is an alteration of the Schlieffen-plan

  • The Schlieffen Plan was not developed to be an applicable war plan
  • It was a defensive plan 
  • Thus, the notion of German War guilt needs to be revisited
  • Mombauer misinterpreted his thesis

- Whether the Schlieffen Plan was used in World War 1
-The adaption of Moltke
-When the Schlieffen Plan was created
-If Germany attacked first during World War 1
-If denying the existence of a Schlieffen Plan really equals no war guilt]]> 2021-11-23 09:41:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1908016035 Bibliography jenske99 https://padlet.com/jenske99/ln08fb257mnr0976/wish/1908068971
