Haben im Ersten Weltkrieg in Belgien und Nordfrankreich Franktireurs gegen die Deutschen gekämpft? Diese Frage wird vor allem seit der 2001 erschienenen Studie der irischen Historiker John Horne und Alan Kramer in der Forschung mehrheitlich verneint. Gunter Spraul überprüft die Argumentation Hornes und Kramers auf der Basis einer eingehenden Untersuchung der von ihnen verwendeten Quellen und deren kritischer Einordnung in den jeweiligen Kontext. Außerdem analysiert der Autor bislang nicht verwendete militärische Quellen. Er untersucht allgemeine Vorwürfe an die deutschen Truppen und einzelne Zwischenfälle mit Zivilisten, insbesondere die Ereignisse in Leuven/Löwen. Schnell steht fest, dass eine seriöse Bearbeitung dieses Themas ohne ein ausgeprägtes Maß an Skepsis gegenüber „amtlichen“ Bekundungen beider Seiten nicht möglich ist.

The causes of the First World War were disputed before the first shots had even been fired. Recriminations intensified following the Treaty of Versailles when the victors accused Germany and its allies of having caused the war. This was the start of a heated blame game in which historians and politicians on all sides became embroiled in a war of documents and publications. More than 100 years on, the question of the origins of the First World War still remains contested. Based on Annika Mombauer’s The Origins of the First World War (2002), this thoroughly revised and expanded volume examines the political and ideological concerns that fuelled these international disagreements and offers an extensive analysis of a complex and unique historical controversy from 1914 to the centenary and beyond. It provides students, teachers, scholars and non-specialist readers with a comprehensive guide through the maze of conflicting interpretations.

The German 10th Infantry Division, stationed in the area of the Poznań 5th Army Corps, was quite a unique formation. The author presents the origin and fighting traditions of the Division's specific regiments in 1866–1871, the organisational structure, the uniforms, the soldiers' equipment and weapons. However, the narration mainly focuses on the history of the 10th Infantry Division in August 1914 – the departure to the concentration area and the fighting in the first month of the war. Bartosz Kruszyński also provides the perspective of the opponent, the French (Paris) 7th Infantry Division. Of great value is the fact that the military operations have been presented from the perspectives of German and French soldiers. The text is supplemented by maps and unique iconography.

Die "deutschen Kriegsgreuel" von 1914. Lange galten sie als erfundene Propaganda der Alliierten – ebenso lange war man in Deutschland davon überzeugt, dass in Belgien und Nordfrankreich Zivilisten als Vergeltung für "Franktireurangriffe" getötet worden waren. In ihrer preisgekrönten Studie zeichnen John Horne und Alan Kramer den Ablauf der deutschen Invasion präzise nach und belegen die Tötung von mehr als 6000 belgischen und französischen Zivilisten durch deutsche Truppen. Doch nicht nur die Ereignisse von 1914 selbst, sondern auch die Entstehung konträrer Darstellungen, Deutungen und Mythen der Kriegsgegner werden vergleichend rekonstruiert und analysiert. Die Autoren beleuchten auch die Auseinandersetzungen der Kriegskontrahenten um die Deutungshoheit, die damit verknüpften Erinnerungskulturen und deren Einfluss auf die Weltpolitik der Nachkriegszeit. Angesichts der aktuellen Debatten um das Kriegs- und Völkerrecht sind ihre Einschätzungen zu möglichen Kontinuitäten in der deutschen Militärtradition und der nationalsozialistischen Kriegführung im Zweiten Weltkrieg von großer Relevanz.

This book demonstrates how people were kept ignorant by censorship and indoctrinated by propaganda. Censorship suppressed all information that criticized the army and government, that might trouble the population or weaken its morale. Propaganda at home emphasized the superiority of the fatherland, explained setbacks by blaming scapegoats, vilified and ridiculed the enemy, warned of the disastrous consequences of defeat and extolled duty and sacrifice. The propaganda message also infiltrated entertainment and the visual arts. Abroad it aimed to demoralize enemy troops and stir up unrest among national minorities and other marginalized groups. The many illustrations and organograms provide a clear visual demonstration of Demm's argument.

Between 1940 and 1945, more than 100,000 airmen were shot down over Europe, a few thousand of whom survived and avoided being arrested. When Men Fell from the Sky is a comparative history of the treatment of these airmen by civilians in France, Germany and Britain. By studying the situation on the ground, Claire Andrieu shows how these encounters reshaped societies at a local level. She reveals how the fall of France in 1940 may have concealed an insurrection nipped in the bud, that the 'People's War' in Britain was not merely a myth, and that in Germany, the 'racial community of the people' had in fact become a social reality with Allied airmen increasingly subjected to lynching from 1943 onwards. By considering why the treatment of these airmen contrasted so strongly in these countries, Andrieu sheds new light on how civilians reacted when confronted with the war 'at home'.

Insurgency and Counterinsurgency in the Nineteenth Century examines insurgency and counterinsurgency across the globe in the nineteenth century. The volume includes chapters from distinguished and rising historians from Europe, North and South America and covers irregular wars in Spain, Ireland, France, Latin America, China, USA, Africa, Central Asia and Burma. The authors explore links between insurgencies and nationalism, including learning curves and emulation in counterinsurgency. With a special emphasis on non-Western warfare, this volume includes case studies such as the Katanga and White Lotus rebellions largely unknown to Western readers. The military history of the nineteenth century thus reveals much more than the symmetrical warfare of Napoleon, Grant and Moltke. This volume shows the commonalities of responses more than their differences and refracts these through themes which crop up repeatedly in different times and places. These themes include common problems and solutions: the challenge of commanding local intelligence networks; public opinion; millenarianism, magic and religion; technology; ‘hearts and minds’; the legal framework of state violence; racial stereotypes and patterns of forgetting and remembering guerrilla conflicts. The first recent study to examine Western and non-Western warfare in equal measure, stressing the prevalence of commonalities between guerrilla warfare and counterinsurgency across the globe, Insurgency and Counterinsurgency in the Nineteenth Century will be of great interest to scholars of military and strategic studies, as well as modern military history. It was originally published as a special issue of Small Wars & Insurgencies.

Translated into English as the Winner of the Geisteswissenschaften International Translation Prize for Work in the Humanities and Social Sciences 2015. During the Great War, mass killing took place on an unprecedented scale. Violence and the German Soldier in the Great War explores the practice of violence in the German army and demonstrates how he killing of enemy troops, the deaths of German soldiers and their survival were entwined. As the war reached its climax in 1918, German soldiers refused to continue killing in their droves, and thus made an active contribution to the German defeat and ensuing revolution. Examining the postwar period, the chapters of this book also discuss the contested issue of a 'brutalization' of German society as a prerequisite of the Nazi mass movement. Biographical case studies on key figures such as Ernst Jünger demonstrate how the killing of enemy troops by German soldiers followed a complex set of rules. Benjamin Ziemann makes a wealth of extensive archival work available to an Anglophone audience for the first time, enhancing our understanding of the German army and its practices of violence during the First World War as well as the implications of this brutalization in post-war Germany. This book provides new insights into a crucial topic for students of twentieth-century German history and the First World War.
