Abstract

This paper proposes an analysis of recent historiography about the First World War. Its main argument centers on the rise of studies focused from global and transnational turns that has dominated the most recent works. This renewal has prompted new research on «unknow» scenarios in previous decades and has begun to show the multiple relationships established between continents. In addition, it has extended the chronology of the war and has led to a thematic expansion that has also led to several investigations focused on neutral countries. In this framework, the traditional frontier between belligerent and neutral scenarios has been put into question. Finally, the article set possible future research perspectives from a review of cultural historiography that has dominated the studies on the Great War worldwide during the last decades.
