Volume 3 of The Cambridge History of the First World War explores
the social and cultural history of the war and considers the role
of civil society throughout the conflict; that is to say those
institutions and practices outside the state through which the war
effort was waged. Drawing on 25 years of historical scholarship, it
sheds new light on culturally significant issues such as how
families and medical authorities adapted to the challenges of war
and the shift that occurred in gender roles and behaviour that
would subsequently reshape society. Adopting a transnational
approach, this volume surveys the war's treatment of populations at
risk, including refugees, minorities and internees, to show the
full extent of the disaster of war and, with it, the stubborn
survival of irrational kindness and the generosity of spirit that
persisted amidst the bitterness at the heart of warfare, with all
its contradictions and enduring legacies.
