Exiting war explores a particular 1918-20 'moment' in the British Empire's history, between the First World War's armistices of 1918 and the peace treaties of 1919 and 1920. That moment, the book argues, was a challenging and transformative time for the Empire. While British authorities successfully answered some of the post-war tests they faced, such as demobilisation, repatriation and fighting the widespread effects of the Spanish flu, the racial, social, political and economic hallmarks of their imperialism set the scene for a wide range of expressions of loyalties and disloyalties and anticolonial movements. The book documents and conceptualises this 1918-20 'moment' and its characteristics as a crucial three-year period of transformation for and within the Empire, examining these years for the significant shifts in the imperial relationship that occurred and as laying the foundation for later change in the imperial system. Primarily aimed at an academic readership, Exiting war will interest scholars of imperialism, British history and First World War Studies as well as a wider audience of non-professional historians interested in imperial history and war.
