Summary
Chapter 3 argues that the successful prosecution of the war relied on civilians living under Allied occupation. In 1917, refugee camps and social services emerged as tools of humanitarian aid and administration to help secure Allied authority. It analyzes the administration of the camps and auxiliary services alongside writings of refugees, eye-witnesses and aid workers who learned to live with a war that wreaked havoc on the local economy, social services and regional governance.
