Synopsis :

Von Laue here presents an entirely new perspective for understanding the dynamics of twentieth-century history. He argues that the global violence and warfare of this century are the consequences of the little-understood world revolution of Westernization. Accounting for world wars, the rise of communism and fascism, decolonization, third world dictatorships, and contemporary terrorism, he describes the twin processes of the expansion of Western power and the emergence of global interdependence.

À propos de l?auteur: Theodore Von Laue is Frances and Jacob Hiatt Professor of European History, Emeritus, at Clark University and author of several books, including Why Lenin? Why Stalin?
