Constantinople Agreement - Consequences

Consequences

Implementation of the Constantinople Agreement was unsuccessful due to the failure of the Gallipoli Campaign which was to conquer Constantinople. Furthermore, the Russian government was overthrown by the Bolsheviks in 1917. The Bolsheviks discovered these various above agreements when they gained control over government archives. They then published the agreements but the French and the British completely denied them and claimed that it was propaganda by the Bolsheviks.

    “There is not much that even the most socially responsible scientists can do as individuals, or even as a group, about the social consequences of their activities.”

    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “We are still barely conscious of how harmful it is to treat children in a degrading manner. Treating them with respect and recognizing the consequences of their being humiliated are by no means intellectual matters; otherwise, their importance would long since have been generally recognized.”
    —Alice Miller (20th century)
