This book examines the struggles of a new army to find popular acceptance and support, and explores the ways that images of manhood were used in the controversies. Ahlbäck places the situation of interwar Finland within a broad European context to reveal the conflicts surrounding compulsory military service and the impact of the Great War on masculinities and constructions of gender.DraftFinlandSociology, MilitaryFinlandSoldiersFinlandHistory20th centuryMasculinityFinlandFinlandArmed ForcesHistory20th centuryFinlandArmed ForcesMilitary lifeElectronic books.DraftSociology, MilitarySoldiersHistoryMasculinity355.2/236309489709041Ahlbäck Anders1041618MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465595603321Manhood and the making of the military2465283UNINA
