- Synopsis
- The 1914–2024 War Atlas deconstructs the contemporary widespread and well-known image of the 20th and 21st centuries, arguing for the continuity of the historical process covering the period 1914–2024.The years between 1914 and 2024 constitute a period of unparalleled economic growth, scientific advancement, political development, and social change – in just over 100 years, human civilization has moved from an industrial to a digital age. However, they also cover some of the most dangerous, violent, and politically volatile years in human history. In these years, two world wars have been fought; weapons of mass destruction dropped; authoritarian and democratic regimes alike have risen and fallen; and regional conflicts have been almost continuous, effectively conjoining World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and the Russo-Ukrainian war. This volume indicates that the 1914 July Crisis set in motion a sequence of events that spanned over 100 years. Containing a range of colourful maps and charts, this book graphically illustrates the arguments presented in both an informative and visual way.This atlas will serve as a perfect textbook for students studying history, geography, politics, and international relations, as well as being a useful guide to contemporary world politics for researchers and for those interested in international relations and modern history.
