The Atlantic Charter was a pivotal policy statement issued in August 14; 1941 that; early in World War II; defined the Allied goals for the post-war world. It was drafted by the leaders of Britain and the United States; and later agreed to by all the Allies.
The Charter stated the ideal goals of the war: no territorial aggrandizement; no territorial changes made against the wishes of the people; restoration of self-government to those deprived of it; reduction of trade restrictions; global cooperation to secure better economic and social conditions for all; freedom from fear and want; freedom of the seas; and abandonment of the use of force; as well as disarmament of aggressor nations. In the 'Declaration by United Nations' of 1 January 1942; the Allies of World War II pledged adherence to this charter's principles.
The Atlantic Charter set goals for the post-war world and inspired many of the international agreements that shaped the world thereafter. The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT); the post-war independence of European colonies; and much more are derived from the Atlantic Charter. Pictures From History
