The Council of Foreign Ministers submitted to the Paris Peace Conference held from 29 June 1946 till 15 October 1946 elaborated proposals of peace agreements.
The paper is dealing with mechanism of functioning of the Peace Conference (participants, invited states, relations toward hostile states). The paper is mapping overall activities of Peace Conference, activities of individual institutions (the Committee of Conference, commissions (political and territorial, economic and special commissions such as the Military Commission, the Commission for Processual Issues, the Comission for dealing with Press, the Editorial Commission, the Legal Commission and the General Commission), sub-commissions and processual issues of Peace Conference activities.
