This magisterial new history elucidates a momentous transformation
process that changed the world: the struggle to create, for the
first time, a modern Atlantic order in the long twentieth century
(1860-2020). Placing it in a broader historical and global context,
Patrick O. Cohrs reinterprets the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 as
the original attempt to supersede the Eurocentric 'world order' of
the age of imperialism and found a more legitimate peace system - a
system that could not yet be global but had to be essentially
transatlantic. Yet he also sheds new light on why, despite
remarkable learning-processes, it proved impossible to forge a
durable Atlantic peace after a First World War that became the long
twentieth century's cathartic catastrophe. In a broader perspective
this ground-breaking study shows what a decisive impact this
epochal struggle has had not only for modern conceptions of peace,
collective security and an integrative, rule-based international
order but also for formative ideas of self-determination,
liberal-democratic government and the West.
