The Twentieth-Century World, 1914 to the Present introduces
students to five distinct historical themes in 20th century history
- politics, economics, religion, technology and the environment.
Each of these themes is set in a social and cultural history
framework that emphasizes the commonalities and diversity in human
experiences throughout the recent era. This is a genuinely global
textbook that takes a non-nationalistic approach to history and
attempts to avoid marginalising the role of non-western actors and
societies. John Corbally explores the connections, interactions and
exploitations of global resources and peoples that were part and
parcel of 20th-century history. Economically, the book shows how
people were connected by the spread of global capitalism and
communism. It explores the spread of traditional religions and
philosophies all over the globe, as well as looking at secular
challenges. It also considers how technology reached further into
people's lives. Ideal for undergraduate level students of
20th-century history, this is a book that offers a balanced,
multi-perspective approach to recent global history, helping the
21st-century student understand today's world and interrogate
commonly held assumptions about its history.
