Andreas McKeough (University of Helsinki) wrote his doctoral dissertation on the Finnish Civil War of 1918. McKeough’s research focuses on personal narratives on the war, especially on how the cultural and social elements in individual narratives reflect the different ways in which the war was experienced and perceived. In his research McKeough also showcases how and following which ideological premises different archives have collected material on the Civil War.
