The Birth of the Modern World, 1780 - 1914
This thematic history of the world from 1780 to the onset of the First World War reveals that the world was far more â€˜globalisedâ€™ at this time than is commonly thought.
- Explores previously neglected sets of connections in world history.
- Reveals that the world was far more â€˜globalisedâ€™, even at the beginning of this period, than is commonly thought.
- Sketches the â€˜ripple effectsâ€™ of world crises such as the European revolutions and the American Civil War.
- Shows how events in Asia, Africa and South America impacted on the world as a whole.
- Considers the great themes of the nineteenth-century world, including the rise of the modern state, industrialisation and liberalism.
- Challenges and complements the regional and national approaches which have traditionally dominated history teaching and writing.
