About this product

Product Information

Keith Robbins' concise, accessible and stimulating book offers the perfect framework for making sense of the political and social developments of world history since 1945. By constructing an underlying theme that looks at the tension between the world conceived as a unity and as a diversity, Robbins discusses the impulse towards globalisation in the aftermath of the Second World War, the divisions inherent in the Cold War, and the shifting allegiances and conflicts in the decades that followed.

'Keith Robbins presents a succinct and engaging introduction to thepost-war world. It takes a historian of skill and poise to chart a trail acrosssuch a complicated landscape.'Norman Davies, author of Europe: A History, 'It is an unenviable task to attempt a concise account of world history since 1945. Keith Robbins, however, succeeds in this laudable aim. The book should appeal to both the general reader and to all undergraduate students of history and politics.'Sir Edward Heath, 'Keith Robbins presents a succinct and engaging introduction to the post-war world.
