Here's summary of the broad-gauged set of topics (including the
growth of the right wing) that are explored in three "notebooks: "
Notebook I includes a bird's-eye view of the geopolitics of the war
itself and of the World War II era, highlights FDR's Four Freedoms
doctrine, and deals with many of the isms (such as fascism,
socialism, and capitalism) then and still at large in the world.
The four chapters in Notebook II develop themes about important
changes that cry out for better understanding in today's world: the
military-industrial complex, the communications revolution,
Keynesianism and definitions of our mixed economy, the decline of
colonialism and the creation of both the UN and its Declaration of
Human Rights, and civil rights and civil liberties during the Cold
War. The last part, Notebook III, is a commentary on present
challenges to domestic well-being and international equilibrium in
the early twenty-first century, a time that may someday be viewed
as a watershed period that is as pivotal as the 1940s' decade
proved to be.
