This dissertation examines the outbreak of the First World War in Graz by means of a microhistorical approach. Consequently, this dissertation reveals that the social cohesion of the city has fundamentally changed during the first months of the war. Due to people’s various different notations concernig the right way of living and, particularly, the proper way of warfare, countless conflicts as well as cooperations arose in the city.
Die Mikrohistorie untersucht das Grazer Straßenleben rund um den Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs und wie sich in weiterer Folge der Burgfrieden (die Einheitsbildung) gestaltete. Die Grazer Bevölkerung transformierte sich wegen vieler Burgfriedensschlüsse und -brüche zu keiner sogenannten Kriegsgemeinschaft, die frei von politischen, nationalen, konfessionellen oder geschlechterrollenbezogenen Konflikten wäre. Vielmehr überformten und erodierten die Kriegserschwernisse die zivilgesellschaftlichen Bindungen.
