Cartes ethnographiques et revendications territoriales dans les atlas européens de l'Entre-deux-guerres (Ethnical maps and territorial claims in european atlas between World War I and World War II)

Abstract

Abstract. - During the period between World War I and World War II, territorial claims were numerous, often based on ethnical and linguistic considerations. These polemical affirmations are often reflected by the maps contained in the european atlas published at that time. This paper deals about the representation of the contested areas along french-german, polish and italian boundaries, in german, polish and italian atlas.
