Description and Table of Contents
Description
This work examines how military institutions attempted to meet the demands of the new strategic, political, and technological realities of the turbulent era between the First and Second World Wars. The contributors chose France, Germany, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and the United States as focus countries because their military institutions endeavoured to develop both the material capacity and the conceptual framework for the conduct of modern industrialised warfare on a continental scale. Also included are an introduction describing the intellectual and practical challenges facing the military reformer in peacetime and a concluding essay by Dennis Showalter drawing together the themes examined in the preceding studies and setting these themes in an interpretative, historiographical context.
