Description

Exploring volunteering as a characteristic of modern wars, this book examines why individuals go to war. It studies the motivations, social backgrounds and military experiences of war volunteers in a wide range of conflicts since the French Revolution, and helps to interpret the relationship between war and society in modern times. Review '...offers a hitherto unexplored comparative perspective on war volunteering and thus should be read by anyone who is interested in the modern history of military mobilization.' -Journal of Contemporary History Book Description This collected volume analyzes motives, experiences and impact of war volunteers in numerous European and non-European wars since 1800 About the Author RÜDIGER BERGIEN Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Potsdam, Germany THOMAS HIPPLER Lecturer, Institute for Political Studies, Lyon, France MICHAEL HOCHGESCHWENDER Professor of American History, University of Munich, Germany LEIGHTON S.
