- Summary:
- The early years of democracy in France were marked by a society divided by civil war, class war and violent conflict."Citizenship and Wars" explores the concept of citizenship in a time of social and political upheaval, and considers what the conflict meant for citizen-soldiers, women, children and the elderly. This highly original argument based on primary research brings new life to debates about the making of French identity in the 19th century.
