Executive summary: Architect of appeasement Right-wing Prime Minister of England from 1937-40, noted for an isolationist foreign policy in the build-up to World War II. He played a key role in negotiating the Munich Agreement of 1938, which sought to appease Nazi Germany by ceding control of the Sudetenland region in Czechoslovakia to Adolf Hitler's regime.
