About This Novel
Perry Allison's grand European history series includes "The Transition from Antiquity to Feudal Society", "The Genealogy of Absolutist States", and "The New Old World". "The New Old World" is a masterpiece that directly addresses the core issues of European integration. It is also an essential reference book for researchers of the EU and European history. This book summarizes the origin, process and outcome of the European integration process in several core countries on the European continent since World War II; it also provides a detailed analysis of the political and cultural background of the formation of the common market in the three core countries of the European Union (Germany, France, and Italy). It also discusses many "Eastern issues" related to the interconnected issues between Turkey and Cyprus, traces the theoretical research and practical summary of European integration from the Enlightenment to the present, and looks forward to the future prospects of the European Union. "The Genealogy of Absolutist Countries" introduces the absolutist countries in Eastern and Western Europe: Spain, France, Prussia, Poland, etc., And attempts to reveal their different roles in the process of transformation to capitalism through a comparative study of the nature and development of absolutist countries in Europe. In the author's view, absolutism is a uniquely European phenomenon and is essentially still based on the aristocratic form of political power. However, capitalism in Western and Eastern European countries each has different historical characteristics and development trajectories, which lead to different development results. "The Transition from Antiquity to Feudalism" covers the evolution of European production methods, social structures and state forms in the long historical period from the formation of the ancient Greek slave state in the 8th century BC to the crisis of European feudalism in the 15th century AD.
