The Routledge Companion to Modern European History since 1763 is
a compact and highly accessible work of reference covering the
broad sweep of events from the last days of the ancient regime to
the ending of the Cold War, and from the reshaping of Eastern
Europe to the radical expansion of the European Union in
2004.
Within the broad coverage of this outstanding volume, particular
attention is given to subjects such as:
- the era of the Enlightened Despots
- the Revolutionary and Napoleonic era in France, and the
revolutions of 1848
- nationalism and imperialism, and the retreat from Empire
- the First World War, the rise of the European dictators, the
coming of the Second World War, the Holocaust, and the post-war
development of Europe
- the Cold War, the Soviet Union and its break up
- the protest and upheavals of the 1960s, as well as social
issues such as the rise of the welfare state, and the changing
place of women in society throughout the period.
With a fully comprehensive glossary, a biographical section, a
thorough bibliography and informative maps, this volume is the
indispensable companion for all those who study modern European
history.
