A total war is one in which the entire resources and population of a nation are utilized to fight the enemy -military, economic, political and cultural. As the entire population is contributing towards the war effort, total war also involves targeting the entire population of the enemy in order to reduce the overall effectiveness of a nations overall war effort.
Examples from WW!
British naval blockade - starve the German population into surrender.
Air raids and naval bombardment of civilian targets by Germany
Conscription of troops for armies (all countries)
Conscription of women for war work on the Home Front (Britain)
Unrestricted submarine warfare, attacking all ships, including merchant and passenger ships (Germany).
