Halperin traces the persistence of traditional class structures
during the development of industrial capitalism in Europe, and the
way in which these structures shaped states and state behavior and
generated conflict. She documents European conflicts between 1789
and 1914, including small and medium scale conflicts often ignored
by researchers and links these conflicts to structures
characteristic of industrial capitalist development in Europe
before 1945. This book revisits the historical terrain of Karl
Polanyi's The Great Transformation (1944), however, it argues that
Polanyi's analysis is, in important ways, inaccurate and
misleading. Ultimately, the book shows how and why the conflicts
both culminated in the world wars and brought about a 'great
transformation' in Europe. Its account of this period challenges
not only Polanyi's analysis, but a variety of influential
perspectives on nationalism, development, conflict, international
systems change, and globalization.
