"Whatever the true interests our country calls for, is always possible" - Enoch Powell
Does anyone have links to any debates on WW1 historiography.
For this, I'm particularly looking at the War Guilt debate - and how the victors utilised sources in apportioning blame to the Germans and how the revisionists managed to reinterpret events to blame the alliance system, nationalism and militarism.
Secondly, the Fritz Fischer debate, and any specific re-reading of evidence or new evidence that brought about his conclusions.
Thirdly, any difference between the impacts of the July crisis and the long term build up under the alliance system and imperial contests.
(note, I am reading on this, but with the amount of work I have at the moment, any links and/or comments would help enormously. Especially with articles regarding the general interpretations and evaluations of evidence interpretation.)
Cheers
Tim
