Der Geist von Potsdam

To what extent does imperial/colonial violence serve as a legitimizing continuity in the thinking and actions of soldiers? This volume explores this topical question by looking at the example of the Prussian military. It examines how the Prussian state organized its military, the military duties it subjected its populations to, and how its ideological orientation shaped the military system.
