Subject RIV: AB - History
The conference advanced the current study of violence during and in the aftermath of the First World War. Its title was inspired by the currently discussed concepts of the “culture of victory” and “culture of defeat”, which strive to characterize the situation in the victorious and defeated states during the First World War. It fostered the discussion on the influence of victory and defeat not only on the origin and spread of violent practices, but also on the stabilization and destabilization of the victorious, as well as defeated, interwar states in interwar East-Central Europe. Many debates critically examined the usefulness of the concepts of the cultures of defeat and victory, and the conference thus undoubtedly contributed to the clarification of some of the main issues of European history of the 1910s and 1920s.
