CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AFTER THE FIRST WORL...

The volume focuses on the years following the First World War (1918-1923)  when political 
military  cultural  social and economic developments consolidated to a high degree in Eastern
Europe. This period was shaped  on the one hand  by the efforts to establish an international
structure for peace and to set previously oppressed nations on the road to emancipation. On the
other hand  it was also defined by political revisionism and territorial claims  as well as a
level of political violence that was effectively a continuation of the war in many places 
albeit under modified conditions. Political decision-makers sought to protect the emerging
nation states from radical political utopias but simultaneously had to rise to the challenges
of a social and economic crisis  manage the reconstruction of the many extensively devastated
landscapes and provide for the social care and support of victims of war.
