Exiting war explores a particular 1918-20 'moment' in the British
Empire's history, between the First World War's armistices of 1918,
and the peace treaties of 1919 and 1920. That moment, we argue, was
a challenging and transformative time for the Empire. While British
authorities successfully answered some of the post-war tests they
faced, such as demobilisation, repatriation, and fighting the
widespread effects of the Spanish flu, the racial, social,
political and economic hallmarks of their imperialism set the scene
for a wide range of expressions of loyalties and disloyalties, and
anticolonial movements. The book documents and conceptualises this
1918-20 'moment' and its characteristics as a crucial three-year
period of transformation for and within the Empire, examining these
years for the significant shifts in the imperial relationship that
occurred and as laying the foundation for later change in the
imperial system. -- .
