    BlackBear50 got a reaction from MastigosAtLarge in World War I Historiography   
    You CANNOT talk about World War I and not consider the spectre of global communism revolution. Europe was on fire and the Left was a scary possibility to Europe's capitalist elite and their politicians. See, in particular: Ireland, Russia, labour unrest in the UK, and Germany.
     
    The concomitant rise of communism and its watered down forms in conjunction with capitalist-nationalism is a narrative that need be told to offer non-teleological alternatives to the carnage, exploitation, and death wrought by imperial-capitalist competition.

    I was just at campus two weeks ago, I guess you're the PhD student he mentioned was starting!  It's you, me, and two other PhD students!  Small group of us.

    Sweet! Similarly I am interested in the 17-18th centuries anglo-world and will be working with Owen Stanwood as well! I am more interested in a transatlantic look at the Irish during this era but am very much interested in colonial/revolutionary America as well. Cool

    Wooo, officially rejected from Brown and UVA. Not unexpected, two very competitive schools. Plus, I am still fortunate to have been accepted into BC which, honestly, was my best fit anyways. 
     
    Congrats to everyone with acceptances and for those without; your self worth is not tied to an admissions process.
