Bell goes further and presents a fundamental transformation of the war from a normal aspect of human existence in an apocalyptic experience "terrible majesty" Companies and individuals tested to its limits and eventually became a liberating experience. Total war was not in the context of nationalism or revolutionary zeal, but the basic meaning of a "culture war", the participants referred to the full commitment and the total abandonment of restraint. Ironically, the intellectual roots of modern militarism of the Enlightenment belief in the arrival of eternal peace. Revolutionary France transformed a moral concept into a practical one: the war for the emancipation of humanity from its past. Bell concluded that this mentality has survived two world wars is questionable, but his call for the rediscovery of restraint and limitation is particularly relevant in an era of proliferation of nuclear weapons and apocalyptic rhetoric.
