ong>Theong> Deluge ong>Theong> Great War, ong>Americaong> and ong>theong> Remakong>inong>g of ong>theong> Global Order, Adaptable a un grand choix de styles et de capacites de enseignement d'etudiant, la Cong>inong>quieme Edition de l'etapa de Segunda presente les etudiants de niveau ong>inong>termediaire a la litterature Hispanique. Comportant les chiffres litteraires Espagnols et Latong>inong>o-ong>americaong>ong>inong>s renommes, les 18 selections de la fiction, la poesie, et le drame sont pleong>inong>ement approuves par une pre-lecture et un appareillage complets de courrier-lecture concus pour engager des etudiants comme lecteurs, auteurs et orateurs d'Espagnol. ong>Theong> Great War and ong>theong> Remakong>inong>g of Global Order ong>Theong> Deluge ong>Theong> Great War and ong>theong> Remakong>inong>g of Global Order As I was a big fan of Tooze's ong>Theong> Wages of Destruction, I was really lookong>inong>g forward to this book. ong>Inong> it, Tooze advances ong>theong> ong>theong>sis that Woodrow Wilson and, to a lesser extent, his successors were attemptong>inong>g to exert a form of global fong>inong>ancial hegemony durong>inong>g ong>theong> latter half of WW1 as ong>theong> Entente became reliant on ong>Americaong>n loans. I can't help but feel that ong>theong> author bit off more than he could chew-even 500 pages isn't enough space to cover global economic and political development over such a tumultuous 15 year time period, and he often makes assertions that he doesn't have enough time or space to fully explore or explaong>inong>-perhaps he should have focused more on ong>theong> ong>Americaong>n-European relationship and left Asia for a follow-on work. Tooze is at his best when discussong>inong>g socio-political events, but makes some a few military history errors-he refers to ong>theong> Imperial German Navy as ong>theong> Kriegsmarong>inong>e, a name it wouldn't adopt until ong>theong> comong>inong>g of ong>theong> Third Reich, and classifies ong>theong> Japanese battleship Mutsu as a cruiser-ong>theong> later is important because of ong>theong> Mutsu's role as a symbol of national pride as ship partially paid for by ong>theong> donations of school kids. I still highly recommend readong>inong>g it. _ *\_ A brilliant book - it has radically changed my understandong>inong>g of... A brilliant book - it has radically changed my understandong>inong>g of ong>theong> Great War and ong>theong> peace. He presents a radical reong>inong>terpretation of ong>theong> peace, Wilson and Brest Litovsk. Oceanic - opens a whole new world of thong>inong>kong>inong>g about ong>theong> problem. Amazong>inong>g, Can't thong>inong>k of a better book that I have read ong>inong> years. _ *\_ A searong>inong>g and highly origong>inong>al analysis of ong>theong> First World War and its anguished aftermath ong>Inong> ong>theong> depths of ong>theong> Great War, with millions dead and no imagong>inong>able end to ong>theong> conflict, societies around ong>theong> world began to buckle. ong>Theong> heart of ong>theong> fong>inong>ancial system shifted from London to New York. ong>Theong> ong>inong>fong>inong>ite demands for men and materiel reached ong>inong>to countries far from ong>theong> front. ong>Theong> straong>inong> of ong>theong> war ravaged all economic and political assumptions, brong>inong>gong>inong>g unheard-of changes ong>inong> ong>theong> social and ong>inong>dustrial order. A century after ong>theong> outbreak of fightong>inong>g, Adam Tooze revisits this seismic moment ong>inong> history, challengong>inong>g ong>theong> existong>inong>g narrative of ong>theong> war, its peace, and its aftereffects. From ong>theong> day ong>theong> United States enters ong>theong> war ong>inong> to ong>theong> precipice of global fong>inong>ancial ruong>inong>, Tooze delong>inong>eates ong>theong> world remade by ong>Americaong>n economic and military power. Tracong>inong>g ong>theong> ways ong>inong> which countries came to terms with ong>Americaong>'s centrality?ong>inong>cludong>inong>g ong>theong> slide ong>inong>to fascism?ong>Theong> Deluge is a chillong>inong>g work of great origong>inong>ality that will fundamentally change how we view ong>theong> legacy of World War I.
