The sequel and companion volume to C.A. Bayly s ground-breaking The Birth of the Modern World, 1780-1914, this wide-ranging and sophist icated study explores global history since the First World War, offering a coherent, comparative overview of developments in politics, economics, and society at large.

Weaves a clear narrative history that explores the themes of politics, economics, social, cultural, and intellectual life throughout the long twentieth century
Identifies the themes of state, capital, and communication as key drivers of change on a global scale in the last century, and explores the impact of those ideas
Interrogates whether warfare was really the pre–eminent driving force of twentieth–century history, and what other ideas shaped the course of history in this period
Explores the causes behind the resurgence of local conflict, rather than global–scale conflict, in the years since the turn of the millennium
Delves into the narrative of inequality, a story that has shaped and been shaped by the events of the last hundred years
