Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed account of a War Issues course created for enlisted men of the US military during World War One. Intended to address the unique challenges of a modern war requiring mass citizen participation, the course's primary goal was to provide soldiers with a detailed historical, economic, and political understanding of the causes and aims of the conflict. The course, and by extension this book, sought to foster morale by replacing blind patriotism and jingoism with a clear understanding of the war's origins and stakes for the young democracy. Rather than offer a narrow, state-approved narrative, the author created a syllabus of lectures and discussions meant to encourage questions, debate, and critical thinking â" all framed within the context of America's democratic ideals. Far from being a dry history lesson, the intent was to help transform enlisted men into thinking soldiers, fully aware of not just the tactics of modern warfare, but also its deeper political and philosophical underpinnings. This book thus serves as a valuable resource for understanding how one of the world's most powerful militaries approached the challenge of indoctrinating citizen soldiers during one of the 20th century's most transformative conflicts.
