A volume from the series "Neue Wege der Forschung. History". The First World War, Germany's "primordial catastrophe", irrevocably ended the long 19th century and changed the European system of states forever. The inexplicable excess of violence between highly civilised European nations is still a cause for concern today. It produced tremendous technical and organisational achievements and drove the peoples involved and suffering to the edge of endurance. It gave rise to new states and new forms of government; the Austrian Empire ceased to exist, in Germany the empire ended and a fragile democracy began.
In a focussed and systematic way, Wolfgang Kruse makes the entire complexity of this first global war comprehensible and its effects on politics and society, strategy and warfare, front and home. It is a war that takes place in the minds of the participants and victims as well as in the field of culture. An entire generation was irrevocably scarred. It also makes clear how lastingly this war shaped the new 20th century, which it became the prelude to.
