Documents On German Foreign Policy 1918-1945: Series C (1933-1937) The Third Reich: First Phase Vol. 1 January 30-October 14, 1933 (1957)
From the Archives of the German Foreign Ministry
This series was edited under the sponsorship of the U.S. Dept. of State, the British Foreign Office and the French Government.
In June 1946 the British Foreign Office and the United States Department of State agreed to publish jointly documents from captured archives of the German Foreign Ministry and the Reich Chancellery. Although the captured archives go back to the year 1867, it was decided to limit the present publication to papers relating to the years after 1918, since the object of the publication was "to establish the record of German foreign policy preceding and during World War IL" The editorial work was to be performed "on the basis of the highest scholarly objectivity." The editors were to have complete independence in the selection and editing of the documents.
Publication was to begin and be concluded as soon as possible. Each Government was "free to publish separately any portion of the documents." In April 1947 the French Government, having requested the right to participate in the project, accepted the terms of this agreement In accordance with the understandings on the basis of which the project was originally undertaken, the editors have had complete freedom in the selection and editing of the documents.
