France and Great Britain. They had been most directly responsible for the Versailles peace treaty of 1919 with Germany after WW 1. Both countries had come to realize that giving away big chunks of Germany to newly established countries and imposing immense 'repair payments' and other demands on Germany had been the cause of many great social and economic problems that in turn had led to the wave of resentment on which Hitler had ridden to power.
Both countries had therefore reason to greatly fear a resumption of the war. France only prepared for defense and in the meantime was not prepared to do anything to provoke Hitler. Britain therefore stood utterly alone - the USA had become firmly isolationist - and knew it simply did not have the army to succesfully face Germany if it would now confront Germany with any form of ultimatum.
British PM Neville Chamberlain has been much maligned for his appeasement policy. But realistically speaking, he had little or no alternatives at the time.
France, Britain, the USSR, Norway, Belgium, The Netherlands and Denmark. They all signed "non-aggression pacts" with Adolf Hitler. The pacts were a joke. Adolf Hitler had already planned to attack and occupy all of those nations.

The attitude of an unfair peace and US non-involvement in the League of Nations help set up the foundations for a new world conflict because, since the United States did not join, the League of Nations was not respected, and no one followed followed the rules of peace set by Woodrow Wilson; the United States wished to stay away from European involvement. Germany was also left to the unfair blame of causing the war and having to pay everyone back for the casualties for the war, bringing about an attitude of unfair peace in Europe.

It was a disgrace for the League of Nations, for France and for Britain as they were giving into Benito Mussolini's demands and allowing Italy to have 2/3 of Abyssinia for free. It showed that they were push-overs, but that was eventually demonstrated as Italy ended up taking complete control over Abysssinia and Appeasement was adopted with Hitler. Winston Churchill famously quipped afterwards: "No more coals to Newcastle, no more Hoares to Paris".
Globalization leads to interdependence among nations because it brings some nations money and others are brought into poverty. Globalization is good and bad for any nation.

In the years leading up to World War II, many people (if mostly a minority) disapproved of the policy of appeasement. "War hawks" throughout the western nations spoke up in protest of the generally accepted view that appeasement was wise. One such "disapprover" was Winston Churchill, who would go on to serve as Prime Minister for Great Britain in its darkest days of the war and then beyond.
