Beskrivelse
In The Twentieth Century: A World History, R. Keith Schoppa offers a window into one of the most turbulent and exciting periods in world history. Through a global lens spanning Africa, the Middle East, Russia, Asia and the Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, this volume traces the major developments of the twentieth century from the rise of globalization to the dawn of the digital age; from the Great War (1914-1918) to the "great war in Africa"(1998-2003); from the first genocide of the century in Namibia to the Bosnian-Kosovo genocides of the late 1990s. From the collapse of empires to the rise of decolonized nation-states on the global stage, The Twentieth Century: A World History offers a rich chronological narrative of our recent past and provides avaluable historical standpoint from which to view our twenty-first century world.
