This set of essays introduces readers to new historical research on
the creation of the new order in East-Central Europe in the period
immediately following 1918. The book offers insights into the
political, diplomatic, military, economic and cultural conditions
out of which the New Europe was born. Experts from various
countries take into account three perspectives. They give equal
attention to both the Western and Eastern fronts; they recognise
that on 11 November 1918, the War ended only on the Western front
and violence continued in multiple forms over the next five years;
and they show how state-building after 1918 in Central and Eastern
Europe was marked by a mixture of innovation and instability. Thus,
the volume focuses on three kinds of narratives: those related to
conflicts and violence, those related to the recasting of civil
life in new structures and institutions, and those related to
remembrance and representations of these years in the public
sphere. Taking a step towards writing a fully European history of
the Great War and its aftermath, the volume offers an original
approach to this decisive period in 20th-century European history.
