A masterly synthesis of the history of the contemporary world, The
World Since 1945 offers the ideal introduction to the events of the
period between the end of the Second World War and the present day.
P. M. H. Bell and Mark Gilbert balance a clear narrative with
in-depth analysis to guide the reader through the aftermath of the
Second World War, the Cold War, decolonization, Detente and the
Arab-Israeli Conflict, up to the on-going ethnic strife and
political instability of the 21st century. The new edition has been
thoroughly revised to fully reflect developments in the history and
historiography of the post-war world, and features five new
chapters on the post-Cold War world, covering topics including: -
The rise and fall of American hegemony - The decline of Europe -
The rise of Asia - Political Islam as a global force - The role of
human rights The World Since 1945 challenges us to better
understand what happened and why in the post-war period and shows
the ways in which the past continues to exercise a profound
influence on the present. It is essential reading for any student
of contemporary history.
