The Resurrection and Collapse of Empire in Habsburg Serbia, 1914–1918: Volume 1 de Jonathan E. Gumz

The Resurrection and Collapse of Empire in Habsburg Serbia, 1914–1918: Volume 1: Cambridge Military Histories

Autor Jonathan E. Gumz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 feb 2014
This book examines the Habsburg Army's occupation of Serbia from 1914 through 1918. This occupation ran along a distinctly European-centered trajectory radically different from other great power colonial projects or occupations during the 20th century. Unlike these projects and occupations, the Habsburg Army sought to denationalize and depoliticize Serbia, to gradually reduce the occupation's violence, and to fully integrate the country into the Empire. These aims stemmed from 19th-century conservative and monarchical convictions that compelled the Army to operate under broad legal and civilizational constraints. Gumz's research provides a counterpoint to interpretations of the First World War that emphasize the centrality of racially inflected, Darwinist worldviews in the war.

Recenzii

'This book effectively refutes the argument that Austria-Hungary's occupation of Serbia constituted an unrestrained war of national destruction. It also challenges recent scholarship that views wartime occupation practices in Eastern Europe through a lens of colonization that anticipated Nazi atrocities in the Second World War. Jonathan Gumz argues that unlike many of their peers elsewhere in Europe, Austria-Hungary's conservative military leaders in fact rejected total war policies that merged war and home fronts. Gumz clearly elaborates this traditional military culture, demonstrating its workings at both the casual village level in occupied Serbia and in the highest Imperial councils in Vienna. He elucidates the key conflicts that set the military against the imperial bureaucracies during the War, and that by 1918 had helped to destroy the regime's legitimacy among its citizens. Above all, his comparative approach produces important insights onto wartime practices, not only in Austria-Hungary but throughout Europe. This is military history at its best, broadly conceived, clearly applicable beyond specifically military situations, and above all, superbly grounded in archival research.' Pieter Judson, Swarthmore College
'Gumz challenges orthodoxies on the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Serbia by describing an evolution from brutality to a pragmatic symbiosis. By 1917 Serbia developed into a vital source of food purchased on such advantageous terms that consideration developed of extending postwar Habsburg rule over a Serbia not merely pacified, but content. Was this an anomaly? Or is it time for a fresh perspective on occupation during the Great War?' Dennis Showalter, Colorado College
'This brilliant account of the Austrian war against Serbia between 1914 and 1918 fills a huge gap in our understanding of the way the Great War reconfigured the boundaries between front, home front and occupation. Gumz shows authoritatively how the Austrian army marched through Serbia right back into the nineteenth century, by trying to do the impossible: to separate battle front and home front in the midst of total war. Their failure to do so is at the core of the failure of the Habsburg empire to survive the war.' Jay Winter, Yale University
