It treats the initial confrontations in the decade before World War I, the confusing concept of "European civil war," the impact of the world wars, the relation between revolution and civil war, and all the individual cases of civil war, with special attention to Russia and Spain. The civil wars of this era are compared and contrasted with earlier internal conflicts, with particular attention to the factors that made this era a time of unusually violent domestic contests, as well as those that brought it to an end. The major political, ideological, and social influences are all treated, with a special focus on violence against civilians"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Civil war -- Europe -- History -- 20th century Violence -- Europe -- History -- 20th century Revolutions -- Europe -- History -- 20th century Civilians in war -- Europe -- History -- 20th century War and society -- Europe -- History -- 20th century Social conflict -- Europe -- History -- 20th century SOCIAL SCIENCE -- Violence in Society.
