HMG and the War against Dissent, 1914-18

History Department at the University of Western Ontario

Total war is not simply a clash of forces but a content of societies. Defeat is almost never solely the consequence of events at the front, but develops from a complex of failures. In the case of the first world war social dislocation not only followed but preceded defeat. Understanding how dissent was moderated is of crucial importance to an understanding of why the first world war ended as it did. This article considers how dissent was combated in the first world war in general and particularly in Britain.
