Problems of Power (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book uses precise historical analysis to examine the dynamic relationship between world politics and economics from the Franco-Prussian War to the eve of World War I. The author posits that post-1871 European politics was dominated by two forces: the Franco-Russian Alliance and the Triple Alliance between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. However, the book shows that economic interests, fueled by industrial expansion and financial globalization, increasingly influenced foreign policy. The author illustrates these forces with examples ranging from American expansionism to the Balkan conflicts, demonstrating that economic factors often superseded political considerations and traditional notions of national interest. In doing so, the book challenges traditional interpretations of diplomatic history and provides a fresh perspective on the origins of the First World War. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
