Hiroshima, Verdun, Reims, Ypres, Guernica, Londres, Stalingrad, Hambourg, Madrid... Si, depuis qu'il existe des villes, leur conquête a été un des objets habituels de la guerre, l'une des transformations majeures des conflits modernes se lit dans le fait que, qu'il s'agisse de la guerre " classique " ou de la guerre civile, les populations urbaines sont devenues l'enjeu même des combats, les victimes désignées des stratégies d'anéantissement du moral et de la volonté de combattre de l'adversaire. Pourtant, la bataille n'est pas toute la guerre et les villes ont inégalement subi le temps des épreuves. Cet ouvrage, qui rassemble les communications présentées lors d'un colloque organisé par le Centre d'histoire de la ville (CEHVI), de l'Université de Tours, s'interroge sur les manières dont guerre et fait militaire irriguent l'espace urbain et sur les rapports entre guerre et identités urbaines. Les quelque 30 contributions ici rassemblées illustrent la richesse et le renouvellement d'une historiographie touchant à un grand thème de l'histoire.

In France in an Era of Global War, scholars re-examine experiences of French politics, occupation, empire and entanglements with the Anglophone world between 1914 and 1945. In doing so, they question the long-standing myths and assumptions which continue to surround this period, and offer new avenues of enquiry.

Between 1914 and 1918, the Western Front passed through some of Europe's most populated and industrialised regions. Large towns including Nancy, Reims, Arras, and Lens lay at the heart of the battlefield. Their civilian inhabitants endured artillery bombardment, military occupation, and material hardship. Many fled for the safety of the French interior, but others lived under fire for much of the war, ensuring the Western Front remained a joint civil-military space. Communities under Fire explores the wartime experiences of civilians on both sides of the Western Front, and uncovers how urban communities responded to the dramatic impact of industrialized war. It discusses how war shaped civilians' personal and collective identities, and explores how the experiences of military violence, occupation, and forced displacement structured the attitudes of civilians at the front towards the rest of the nation. Drawing on a vast array of archival sources, letters, diaries, and newspapers in English, French, and German, it reveals the history of the Western Front from the perspective of its civilian inhabitants. From Leningrad to Warsaw, Hamburg, and, more recently, Sarajevo and Donetsk, urban violence has remained a feature of warfare in Europe, turning cities into battlefields. On each occasion, civilian populations were at the heart of military operations, and forced to adapt to life in a warzone. This was also the case between 1914 and 1918, despite the myth that the First World War was predominantly a soldiers' war. The civilian inhabitants of the Western Front were among the first to suffer the full impact of modern, industrialized war in an urban setting. Communities under Fire explains the multiple ways by which these urban residents responded to, were changed by, succumbed to, or survived the enormous pressures of life in a warzone.

La chute du mur de Berlin a changé tout autant notre vision du passé que celle de notre futur. La coupure de 1945, inaugurale de la bipolarité du monde, s'est quelque peu estompée au profit d'une coupure plus ancienne, parfois sous-estimée, celle de 1914, provoquant un effet de perspective qui a relancé l'intérêt sur la Première Guerre mondiale. Partant de ce constat, une équipe internationale d'historiens, animée par le Centre de recherche de l'Historial de Péronne et l'Institut d'histoire du temps présent, a cherché à repenser autrement l'histoire sociale, culturelle et anthropologique des deux guerres mondiales, en s'attachant à mettre en lumière les comparaisons et filiations possibles, le poids des héritages comme la " brutalisation " ou la " banalisation ", l'écho et la mémoire de la Grande Guerre dans la Seconde Guerre mondiale, trop souvent abordée depuis quelques années sous l'angle exclusif du Génocide. L'étude s'est attachée à comprendre la " violence de Guerre ". Non pas la guerre comme violence, mais les différentes modalités de violences que ces deux guerres-là ont engendrées : violences anticipées, telles les constructions de la figure de l'ennemi, violences infligées, subies ou observées, violences remémorées ou refoulées. Elle s'intéresse aux acteurs : combattants et civils ; hommes et femmes ; bourreaux, victimes et témoins ; individus, groupes et foules. Elle s'intéresse aux lieux : le champ de bataille, la ville, les camps. Elle s'intéresse aux liens entre la violence de guerre et la violence politique. Menée à plusieurs voix, de part et d'autre du 11 septembre 2001, cette étude centrée sur 1914-1945 a l'ambition de donner une perspective longue aux phénomènes de violences extrêmes.

'This war is not the end but the beginning of violence. It is the forge in which the world will be hammered into new borders and new communities. New molds want to be filled with blood, and power will be wielded with a hard fist.' Ernst Jünger (1918) For the Western allies 11 November 1918 has always been a solemn date - the end of fighting which had destroyed a generation, and also a vindication of a terrible sacrifice with the total collapse of their principal enemies: the German Empire, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire. But for much of the rest of Europe this was a day with no meaning, as a continuing, nightmarish series of conflicts engulfed country after country. In this highly original, gripping book Robert Gerwarth asks us to think again about the true legacy of the First World War. In large part it was not the fighting on the Western front which proved so ruinous to Europe's future, but the devastating aftermath, as countries on both sides of the original conflict were wrecked by revolution, pogroms, mass expulsions and further major military clashes. If the War itself had in most places been a struggle purely between state-backed soldiers, these new conflicts were mainly about civilians and paramilitaries, and millions of people died across central, eastern, and south-eastern Europe before the USSR and a series of rickety and exhausted small new states came into being. Everywhere there were vengeful people, their lives racked by a murderous sense of injustice, and looking for the opportunity to take retribution against enemies real and imaginary. Only a decade later, the rise of the Third Reich and other totalitarian states provided them with the opportunity they had been looking for.

The state's policy with regard to fathers and fatherhood had a great impact on concepts of citizenship and gender in France in the era of the two World Wars. Drawing on new material that has only recently become available from the archives of the Vichy regime, Kristen Stromberg Childers analyzes the ways fathers were promoted as saviors of the nation after France's humiliating defeat by the Germans in June 1940. Childers argues that concern for the family and for the status of fathers in modern France was not merely a response to falling birthrates and German aggression, but was fundamental to the very notion of citizenship and political participation. The debate on men as gendered beings, Childers demonstrates, is central to the political, social, and cultural history of France in the modern age. The father figure became a focus as participants from all classes and across the political spectrum debated what was wrong with the French family and what policies were needed to remedy the problem. Childers examines how these policies were implemented, what they reveal about the development of the welfare state in France, and how they help explain the importance of Vichy in twentieth-century French history. Twenty-eight illustrations, including fifteen photographs, many never previously published, complement her argument.

The German Revolution of November 1918 is nowadays largely forgotten outside Germany. It is generally regarded as a failure even by those who have heard of it, a missed opportunity which paved the way for the rise of the Nazis and the catastrophe to come. Robert Gerwarth argues here that to view the German Revolution in this way is a serious misjudgement. Not only did it bring down the authoritarian monarchy of the Hohenzollern, it also brought into being the first ever German democracy in an amazingly bloodless way. Focusing on the dramatic events between the last months of the First World War in 1918 and Hitler's Munich Putsch of 1923, Robert Gerwarth illuminates the fundamental and deep-seated ways in which the November Revolution changed Germany. In doing so, he reminds us that, while it is easy with the benefit of hindsight to write off the 1918 Revolution as a 'failure', this failure was not somehow pre-ordained. In 1918, the fate of the German Revolution remained very much an open book.
