Europa Desgarrada: Guerra, Ocupación y Violencia, 1900-1950

Some years ago, John Keegan wondered whether historians should not take "the trouble to reflect on what it is that makes men kill each other". This book analyzes the forms of war and warlike violence in Europe in the first half of the twentieth century, from comparative and transnational perspectives and based on the methodological renewal brought about by war studies and the new military history. It is, therefore, an approach to that gigantic theater of war that was Europe in the era of world and civil wars, occupations, resistances, forced displacements and genocides. A journey into the interior of a Europe torn apart. [Translated from Amazon]
