▼ Contesting the Russian Borderlands analyzes German military rule in occupied Lithuania during the First World War within the context of the German Empire's imperial history. The experience was startling and novel to most of those who implemented policy in the conquered eastern territory, but German administrators and soldiers channeled prewar stereotypes and relied on past policies toward ethnic and national minorities in order to conceptualize and rule the occupied lands. A variety of published and unpublished documents from German and Lithuanian archives provide new information on German soldiers' and administrators' confrontation with the Russian borderlands. Diaries, memoires, and regimental histories indicate that Germans' impressions of Russian territory hewed to widespread stereotypes of the Russian Empire as a threatening, disorganized, dirty, and fundamentally different place. Administrative reports and newspapers document how policy and propaganda subsequently reinforced these views by insisting upon the inferiority of local residents and by striving for the full exploitation of the occupied lands' material and human resources. Administrators' desire to spread an idealized vision of Germanness (Deutschtum) to the industrially underdeveloped lands was expressed as the broadly defined spreading of "culture" that would improve all aspects of the local civilians' lives. The context of the imperial borderlands was decisive; the occupiers sought to "liberate" the local residents from the Russian Empire by instituting what they regarded as benevolent and superior German rule. Because of the emphasis on the inferiority of the occupied population and the importance of obtaining raw materials for the German war effort, however, the occupiers made few concessions to local ethnic groups, including Lithuanians, Latvians, Jews, Poles, and Belarusians. Military defeat on the Western Front nullified the attempt to permanently subject the borderlands and their residents to German rule, but the experience of occupation nonetheless profoundly influenced German views of the East. Advisors/Committee Members: Bartov, Omer (Director), Mandel, Maud (Reader), Cohen, Deborah (Reader).

▼ Sikhism and warfare have been inexorably linked throughout history. As Singh and Madra note, ‘Five hundred years ago, this land (Punjab) of conquest serial subjugation was the crucible from which emerged the Sikh warrior’ (2013, p. V). Although there is some truth to the statement, the idea of the warrior Sikh has been exaggerated. Remembrance Day and the Centenary of the First World War, serve as places to facilitate constructions of the warrior Sikh (Qureshi, 2013). What often gets overlooked is Sikhism and the colonial constructions of them as a martial race. The martial race theory in India advocated that only specific communities were fit to serve in war, which formed the link between war service and Sikhism. This thesis is an attempt to investigate this connection by exploring the making of the Sikhism as a ‘martial race’. It will also address the role of martiality for Sikhs in the First World War. The positioning of Sikhs as a martial race was a multi-faceted negotiation and not simply an imposition from above. The thesis will show that ideas of martiality grew out of a joint political agenda from Sikhs and the British Raj. Sikhs sought the protection of their religion, and in return provided military service. Therefore, Sikh martiality is understood as a meeting point between the coloniser and colonised. The First World War presented the first significant challenge to this relationship. This can be seen through Sikh soldiers’ letters that were sent to their families in India, and official military documents. The thesis will show that issues of recruitment, morale, and anti-imperial movements, caused ideas of martiality to be rewritten, despite martiality being based on the fixed notion of race. These changes ranged from introducing new ‘races’ to amending the entire recruitment process. Consequently, the thesis will argue that the pressures of the First World War undermined pre-war ideas of martiality. The war also demonstrates an awareness from Sikh soldiers’ of being a martial race and its advantageous position in Colonial India. Hence, the final chapter addresses how this awareness led Sikhs to gain a form of political autonomy by 1925, a luxury many Indians did not gain until 1947. As Sikhs achieved a form of independence in 1925, it exemplifies the point about colonial negotiation. In summary, the Sikh martial race theory not only uncovers new knowledge of military history but also partly uncovers insights into Sikh soldiers and the agency of their community.

▼ This thesis examines the relationships and interactions between British and French soldiers on the Western Front of the First World War. To date the historical approaches to inter-allied relations has been predominantly focused on those interactions taking place at governmental or command levels. Whilst previous studies have touched on the relations between common soldiers, this has often been within specific case studies. I have drawn particularly on the contemporary diaries, letters and written records of British soldiers within the Imperial War Museum and also the postal censorship records of the French army at the Archives de l'armee de terre in order to trace the nature and evolution of these relations across the war. My study covers the time-period of 1914-1918 and focuses on periods of sustained contact in 1914, 1916 and 1918. This focus shows that the arrival of Kitchener's New Armies in 1915-16 was a crucial development in forming strong relations between British and French soldiers. British military command took little interest and made no substantial plans for ensuring friendly relations between soldiers of the two armies and, as a result, these early interactions were largely self-directed by the soldiers. They were also driven by the apparent insecurities of the British volunteer soldiers who viewed themselves as being less accomplished than their French fellows, who were largely well-disposed to welcoming and teaching the new British arrivals in order to achieve swift victory. I argue that, although serendipitous in nature, this uneven starting point allowed relations between British and French armies to evolve positively whilst allowing both sides to maintain a sense of their own national identity without having to overly sacrifice their own ideals. However, the French desire for a decisive victory and a professional response in the trenches led to a rupture in Tommy-Poilu relations following the British failures in 1918. This changed the dynamic between the two nations in the build up to, and aftermath of, the armistice and provided a prelude to the difficult inter-war relationships at governmental levels.

▼ The historiography of the First World War has always found the Third Battle of Ypres controversial, yet there is a missing dimension to these debates; the study of military intelligence. The young historiography of military intelligence during the First World War, has helped to put the various intelligence systems employed into context. However no study has focussed on how intelligence helped the BEF when preparing for an operation. This thesis examines in detail the intelligence received prior to the Battle of Broodseinde (4 October 1917) which took place during the Third Battle of Ypres, and whether intelligence of this attack may have influenced the operational planning. The Battle of Broodseinde is known for the massacre of three full German divisions who were in place ready to attack the British lines. This thesis examines whether the BEF had any prior knowledge of this German attack. This thesis is in two parts; the first chapter provides a basis by explaining the context of the Battle of Broodseinde within the wider campaign and how military intelligence operated in 1917. The second chapter then focuses on the intelligence analysis of the formations of the BEF that stopped this counter-attack, mainly Second Army and I and II Anzac Corps. This provides a clear picture of how these formations assessed the enemy’s intentions. This thesis concludes that by 1917 the BEF had a mature intelligence analysis system in place to monitor the operations of the German Army. The study of military intelligence at Broodseinde reveals that Second Army and the Corps below it had a very accurate picture of the German Army thanks to a disciplined system of cross-referencing sources. Due to this Second Army were able to accurately predict the attack. However Second Army could not definitively stipulate when the attack would happen, due to time constraints. As such the British operation here was not specifically targeted towards this attack. The thesis concludes that the study of further battles in this way would provide a greater understanding to how the BEF directed the war.

▼ This thesis analyses the significance of oil to British strategy during 1914-1923. It shows that by 1923 Britain had a coherent oil policy, which affected naval strategy, diplomatic relations, policy towards the oil industry and post-war aims in the Middle East. Previous works have looked at only part of the picture and have not appreciated the extent to which oil affected all these areas. This work brings all these different facets together into a single study. The most important British user of oil was the Royal Navy, which was replacing coal with oil as its principal fuel even before the First World War, which saw great growth in the use of oil. Aircraft and land vehicles powered by oil fuelled internal combustion engines transformed both warfare and civilian life, but their overall usage of oil was much less than that of the RN. British industry was slower than the RN to adopt oil because coal was cheaper; the RN put the technical advantages of oil ahead of cost. Britain's power and prestige was based on its naval supremacy; British dominance of naval fuel bunkering was a key factor in this. Britain had substantial reserves of coal, including Welsh steam coal, the best in the world for naval use, but little oil. Britain's oil strategy in 1914 was to build up reserves cheaply in peacetime and to buy on the market in wartime. An oil crisis in 1917 showed that this was flawed and that secure, British controlled supplies were needed. The war created an opportunity for Britain to secure substantial oil reserves in the Middle East. Attempts to obtain control of these affected the peace treaties and Britain's post-war relations with its Allies. The USA was then the world's largest producer and was the main supplier to the Allies during the war. It believed, wrongly, that its output would decline in the 1920s and feared that Britain was trying to exclude it from the rest of the world. France also realised that it needed access to safe and reliable supplies of oil. The largest available potential oilfield was in the Mosul vilayet, part of the Ottoman Empire in 1914, and now part of Iraq. The 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement allocated about half of Mosul to France, which in 1918 agreed to include all of it in the British mandate territory of Iraq in return for a share of the oil and British support elsewhere. Other disagreements delayed an Anglo-French oil agreement, but one was finally signed at San Remo in 1920. It was followed by the Treaty of Sèvres with the Ottoman Empire, which appeared to give Britain all that it wanted in the Middle East. The resurgence of Turkey under Mustafa Kemal meant that it had to be re-negotiated at Lausanne in 1923. Sèvres angered the USA, since it appeared to exclude US oil companies from Iraq. For a period Britain focused on the need to have a large, British controlled oil company, but it was eventually realised that control of oil bearing territory was more important than the nationality of companies. This allowed US oil companies to be given a stake in Iraqi oil, improving Anglo-American…

▼ This dissertation charts Japan’s rise in world shipping from the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. At the turn of the century, several companies established the first transoceanic shipping services under the Japanese flag. Japanese ships could soon be found in ports on every continent, and by the end of the First World War (1914–1918) the nation boasted a fleet that was the world’s third largest. In the interwar period, Japanese ships continued to advance into world trade routes, but with the outbreak of the Pacific War (1941–1945), they were mobilized to create an autarkic bloc in Asia. The subsequent destruction of the commercial fleet, however, precipitated the collapse of Japan’s empire. By examining Japanese efforts to develop a national fleet and promote its advance into overseas trade routes, this study argues that Japan’s rise as a modern nation-state and imperial power rested on its ships becoming integral components of systems of global transportation. As military transports and naval auxiliaries, commercial ships contributed to imperial expansion by projecting military power overseas. As commercial transports, they contributed to the consolidation of Japan’s empire by facilitating movements of people, goods, and information between territories. At the same time, Japanese companies, often with state support, developed shipping services in trade routes beyond the empire. By examining these trajectories of oceanic expansion, this study argues that officials, business leaders, and intellectuals sought to secure Japan’s position as a world power by making the nation an agent of global interconnectedness. Efforts to promote Japanese shipping, moreover, were often influenced by the observation of rival maritime powers. The transnational flows of information made possible by shipping and other infrastructure informed approaches to shipping and maritime affairs in Japan and beyond. By examining how Japan’s maritime leaders engaged with and produced ideas about world shipping, this dissertation tells a global story about the ways that imperial competition motivated efforts to create connections across borders and seas.

▼ General Lesley J. McNair demonstrated an innovative spirit and exceptional intellectual capacity in his efforts to organize and train the U.S. Army for World War II. The influence he exerted on Army doctrine, training, equipment development, unit organization, and combined arms fighting methods placed him among the handful of generals most responsible for both the effectiveness and the flaws of the force that the United States sent to war in 1942. Through his strong views and aggressive leadership, McNair played a key role in guiding the Army's interwar mechanization and doctrinal development efforts. Many studies of this period have described aspects of his participation in that process. However, no comprehensive study of McNair's forty-year military career exists, largely because he did not survive the war, and he left behind no personal memoirs or diaries when he died of wounds inflicted by errant American bombs in Normandy on July 25, 1944. This study examines General McNair's full career - from his graduation from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1904, through his death in Normandy forty years later. The analysis demonstrates how McNair's ideas developed over four decades of service, culminating in their practical application during the pre-war mobilization period and his influence on U.S. Army effectiveness in World War II. Several themes recur throughout the period of McNair's service as the General Headquarters' (GHQ) chief of staff from 1940-42, and the commander of Army Ground Forces (AGF) from 1942-44. He placed significant emphasis on the value of officer education and held strong convictions regarding the qualities required in a competent commander and soldier, leading him to advocate tough, realistic training. He embraced military innovation and technological development and remained personally involved in tests and experiments throughout his career to modernize the Army. He strove to gain efficiencies in unit organization by streamlining and standardizing units and training, while advocating pooling of specialized equipment and units at corps level and above, thereby optimizing organizations for task organization. This study demonstrates that one can discern the conceptual roots of all these overarching ideas in McNair's actions and experiences during the several decades of his lesser-known early career. This reevaluation of the career of General McNair also provides a lens through which to reconsider the question of U.S. Army effectiveness during World War II. While the "materiel superiority" narrative still dominates historical interpretations of America's contribution to the war effort, several recent studies have begun to create a competing narrative that depicts a U.S. Army overcoming severe mobilization obstacles to develop into an excellent Army on par with all of the other major combatants during the war. The analysis offered in this study supports this emerging reinterpretation of America's war effort by reevaluating the career of one of the U.S. Army's most important but… Advisors/Committee Members: Wilson, Theodore A.
