Description
In what ways did World War II differ from all previous wars including World War I? Were genocide, strategic bombing and resistance movements peculiar features of this war? Examining these issues, this book undertakes a discussion of the historical debate over the impact and consequences of World War II. It questions whether post-war social and economic reform was integrally related to the war, how far women were affected by this war as compared with World War I, and how the two world wars compare as, for instance, "watersheds" or in affecting the arts, literature, and intellectual and social attitudes generally? The book goes on to look at the geopolitical consequences of the war, and the social developments which followed the war up to 1955.
Table of Contents
- The nature of World War II
- the debate over the impact and consequences of World War II
- the division of Europe
- social change: 1945-1955.
