About This Novel
"Postwar European History" (a four-volume set) is the most important representative work of Tony Judt, the most respected historian and thinker in the world today. It took 20 years to conceive and 10 years to write. It makes extensive use of documents in 6 languages, covers 34 countries, and takes into account Western Europe. Eastern Europe, covering the whole of Europe, is the first master-class historical masterpiece that comprehensively displays the political, economic and cultural changes of modern Europe over the past 60 years. It is recommended by European and American political leaders such as European Commission President Barroso, European Parliament Speaker Schulz, and EU Foreign Minister Solana. From brutal genocide to the advocacy of human rights values, from fascism sweeping the world to the disintegration of the Soviet Eastern European socialist bloc, from free capital markets to big-government welfare states, from arms races to the establishment of the European Union for mutual assistance and cooperation, from tariff barriers to the unified currency Euro... Europe is a laboratory of human activities. It has experienced the baptism and experimentation of various political systems, ideologies, social systems, economic orders, and cultural trends of thought.
