What can be called the long twentieth century represents the most
miraculous and creative era in human history. It was also the most
destructive. Over the past 150 years, modern societies across the
globe have passed through an extraordinary and completely
unprecedented transformation rooted in the technological
developments of the nineteenth century. The World in the Long
Twentieth Century lays out a framework for understanding the
fundamental factors that have shaped our world on a truly global
scale, analyzing the historical trends, causes, and consequences of
the key forces at work. Spanning the 1870s to the present, this
book explores the making of the modern world as a connected pattern
of global developments. Students will learn to think about the past
two centuries as a process, a series of political and economic
upheavals, technological advances, and environmental
transformations that have shaped the long twentieth century.
