Abstract
This special issue deals with the phenomenon of the emergence of radical violence in what might
be called ‘shatter zones’ of empires after the end of the First World War. It argues that the
emergence of violence was due to the absence of functioning state control and facilitated by the
effects of experiencing mass violence during the First World War. In the multi-ethnic regions of
the former empires, the rising wave of nationalism directed this violent potential against ethnic
and religious minorities.
