This book examines the particular experience of ethnic, religious
and national minorities who participated in the First World War as
members of the main belligerent powers: Britain, France, Germany
and Russia. Individual chapters explore themes including contested
loyalties, internment, refugees, racial violence, genocide and
disputed memories from 1914 through into the interwar years to
explore how minorities made the transition from war to peace at the
end of the First World War. The first section discusses so-called
'friendly minorities', considering the way in which Jews, Muslims
and refugees lived through the war and its aftermath. Section two
looks at fears of 'enemy aliens', which prompted not only
widespread internment, but also violence and genocide. The third
section considers how the wartime experience of minorities played
out in interwar Europe, exploring debates over political
representation and remembrance. Bridging the gap between war and
peace, this is the ideal book for all those interested in both
First World War and minority histories.
