    SMALL WARS AND INSURGENCIES IN THEORY AND PRACTICE, 1500-1850
    BEATRICE HEUSER
    In early modern times, warfare in Europe took on many diverse and overlapping forms. Our modern notions of ‘regular’ and ‘irregular’ warfare, of ‘major war’ and ‘small war’, have their roots in much greater diversity than such binary notions allow for.

The contributors argue that the predominant 'realist' paradigm that focuses on states and their self-interest is not applicable to the largest period of European history, because states either did not exist or were only in the making. Instead,...

    FAMOUS BATTLES AND HOW THEY SHAPED THE MODERN WORLD, 1588–1943
    BEATRICE HEUSER / ATHENA S. LEOUSSI
    Why are some battles remembered more than others? Surprisingly, it is not just size that matters, nor the number of dead, the decisiveness of battles or their effects on communities and civilisations. It is their political afterlife the multiple meanings and political uses attributed to them that determines their fame. This ground-breaking series goes well beyond military histo...
