Generalisation from the battle on the Meuse, where elite German units faced poor French forces, exaggerates the superiority of German troops’ mission-oriented tactics relative to the top-down ‘methodical’ tactics of the French. This article shows that French infantry tactics were the object of permanent politicised controversy, and that in the course of patrolling and skirmishing in the no-man’s-land between French and German fortifications, the French substantially modified their tactics and organisation.","PeriodicalId":44606,"journal":{"name":"War in History","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/09683445251329056","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147880497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, France reoccupied Ubangi-Shary in the wake of the Treaty of Versailles. As a result, political control and economic exploitation were reinforced within the colonised territory. This paper examines the resistance of the Mboum-Pana to the colonial yoke. To this end, it analyses the factors that triggered this resistance and the forms taken by the anti-colonial insurrection. Finally, the analysis will focus on the war of 'pacification' waged to re-establish order.</p>","PeriodicalId":44606,"journal":{"name":"War in History","volume":"33 3","pages":"269-288"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13395239/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148580659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
