The First World War was the first large-scale industrialized
military conflict in the world's history, and it gave birth to the
concept of total war. The essays in this 2000 volume analyse the
experience of the war in light of this concept's implications, in
particular the systematic erosion of distinctions between the
military and civilian spheres. With an emphasis on developments in
Germany, France, Great Britain and the United States, leading
scholars from Europe and North America locate the First World War
along a trajectory that began in the wars of the middle of the
nineteenth century and culminated in worldwide conflict in the
middle of the twentieth. The essays explore the efforts of soldiers
and statesmen, industrialists and financiers, professionals and
civilian activists to adjust to the titanic, pervasive pressures
that the military stalemate on the western front imposed on
belligerent and neutral societies.
