This is a comprehensive history of political violence during
Europe's incredibly violent twentieth century. Leading scholars
examine the causes and dynamics of war, revolution,
counterrevolution, genocide, ethnic cleansing, terrorism and state
repression. They locate these manifestations of political violence
within their full transnational and comparative contexts and within
broader trends in European history from the beginning of the
dissolution of the Ottoman Empire in the late nineteenth-century,
through the two world wars, to the Yugoslav Wars and the rise of
fundamentalist terrorism. The book spans a 'greater Europe'
stretching from Ireland and Iberia to the Baltic, the Caucasus,
Turkey and the southern shores of the Mediterranean. It sheds new
light on the extent to which political violence in
twentieth-century Europe was inseparable from the generation of new
forms of state power and their projection into other societies, be
they distant territories of imperial conquest or ones much closer
to home.
