The First World War has been described as the "primordial
catastrophe of the twentieth century." Arguably, Italian Fascism,
German National Socialism and Soviet Leninism and Stalinism would
not have emerged without the cultural and political shock of World
War I. The question why this catastrophe happened therefore
preoccupies historians to this day. The focus of this volume is not
on the consequences, but rather on the connection between the Great
War and the long 19th century, the short- and long-term causes of
World War I. This approach results in the questioning of many
received ideas about the war's causes, especially the notion of
"inevitability."
