Nations, Identities and the First World War : Shifting Loyalties to the Fatherland, Paperback / softback Book

Nations, Identities and the First World War : Shifting Loyalties to the Fatherland Paperback / softback

Edited by Dr Nico (Centre for War and Contemporary Society, Belgium) Wouters, Professor Laurence van (Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium) Ypersele

Paperback / softback

Description

Nations, Identities and the First World War examines the changing perceptions and attitudes about the nation and the fatherland by different social, ethnic, political and religious groups during the conflict and its aftermath.

The book combines chapters on broad topics like propaganda state formation, town and nation, and minorities at war, with more specific case studies in order to deepen our understanding of how processes of national identification supported the cultures of total war in Europe.

This transnational volume also reveals and develops a range of insightful connections between the themes it covers, as well as between different groups within Europe and different countries and regions, including Western and Eastern Europe, the Ottoman Empire and colonial territories.

It is a vital study for all students and scholars of the First World War.
