Research Abstract |
The major findings of this research project are as follows. Both in terms of historical memories and practical changes, the First World War for the Eastern European peripheries was the continuation of the Balkan Wars that broke out in 1912. Thus, the preparation of war mobilization and related reforms in the socio-economic structures started earlier than the Western countries. The process was, however, retarded and could not achieve the expected result, no the less. It was this inconsistency that hindered the rapid recovery of war damage and normal return to the prewar parliament government. It precipitated the repeated military intervention into the civil authorities, and led to the establishment of authoritarian rules in the 1920. Our research shows that the international terrorist organizations that were much en-powered during the war were playing much more important roles than had been expected by the scholars, and it remains as one of the key questions to be solved.
