Description: Warfare and
Society in Europe, 1898 to the Present examines warfare in Europe from the
Fashoda conflict in modern-day Sudan to the recent war in Iraq. The twentieth
century was by far the world's most destructive century with two global wars
marking the first half of the century and the constant fear of nuclear
annihilation haunting the second half.
Throughout, this
book treats warfare as a function of larger political, cultural, social and
economic issues and includes discussion
of:
* the alliances
that led to the outbreak of the First World War
* the First
World War
* the Second
World War
* the increasing
role played by the United States in Europe's twentieth century wars
* Eastern
European wars such as the Russian Civil War and the Greco-Turkish war
* new technologies
and weapons.Combining a traditional survey of military history with a survey of
social issues, Michael S. Neiberg both examines how social changes have
impacted the nature of war fighting and how war has shaped the basic patterns
of European society.
