万国争先：第一次工业全球化
(new)mattje Abenjos Et Al.
This book provides an accessible introduction and analysis of the global history of the first era of industrial globalization, which began in the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars and collapsed in the maelstrom of World War I. By combining industrialization, technological innovation, and the rise and fall of empires, the world's industrializing powers shaped an interconnected global space that left few areas untouched. In ten succinct chapters, this book chronicles the major shifts in global economy and society during this period, outlining the interconnections of global industrial, imperial, and economic transformations with local experiences and identities. Finally, the book reveals the catastrophic impact of the First World War on the global system. This book weaves together histories of industrialization, the world economy, imperialism, international law, diplomacy, and war that historians often view as separate developments and integrates them into a new analysis of an era of fundamental historical change. The author believes that the revolutionary changes in politics, society and international affairs in the 19th century were interconnected developments. This book is essential reading for any scholar of modern global history.
