Understand the postwar challenge of rebuilding society and the ideas shaping a more just future.

This concise study examines reconstruction as a global task, drawing on lessons from war-torn nations and the United States. It frames the questions, debates, and practical steps scholars and policymakers used to think about a rebuilt world.

Based on the author’s examination of economic, social, and political change after World War I, the book surveys how nations addressed rehabilitation, labor, education, housing, and cultural integration. It also explores competing visions of democracy and the role of work, citizenship, and technology in shaping a more equitable society.

How nations approached postwar planning, including rehabilitation and social reform.
The tension between economic restoration and social justice in industry and housing.
Efforts to integrate immigrants and expand citizenship through education and literacy.
The impact of war on workers, families, and urban life, with attention to women’s labor and housing conditions.

Ideal for readers interested in early 20th-century social science, public policy, and the practical questions of rebuilding after conflict.
