Imagining War

French and British Military Doctrine between the Wars

More about the book

Exploring the impact of military culture on doctrine choice, Elizabeth Kier challenges the notion that military organizations inherently favor offensive strategies. Through a cultural lens, she reveals how differing worldviews shape military responses to external constraints, such as conscription policies. Utilizing detailed case studies from France and Great Britain during the interwar period, Kier critiques prevailing explanations for doctrinal decisions, particularly the oversimplified lessons drawn from World War I's outcomes, and contributes to the debate on military doctrine origins in security studies.
