This book examines the Habsburg Army's occupation of Serbia from
1914 through 1918. This occupation ran along a distinctly
European-centered trajectory radically different from other great
power colonial projects or occupations during the 20th century.
Unlike these projects and occupations, the Habsburg Army sought to
denationalize and depoliticize Serbia, to gradually reduce the
occupation's violence, and to fully integrate the country into the
Empire. These aims stemmed from 19th-century conservative and
monarchical convictions that compelled the Army to operate under
broad legal and civilizational constraints. Gumz's research
provides a counterpoint to interpretations of the First World War
that emphasize the centrality of racially inflected, Darwinist
worldviews in the war.
