The period since 1945 has seen political events and socio-economic developments of enormous significance for the human race. This series explores these developments.
I used this book as a text for a history course at UC Riverside. The author unrolls his opinion eloquently in this book. Readers will gain a comprehensive history of Western Europe after WWII and its turn to social democracy. Urwin's chapters include topics of treaties, the EEC, and the dozens and dozens of economic and political arrangements; Europe is moving towards economic and political integration. Urwin would not suggest a United States of Europe, but a Union where the European members no longer swindle, cheat, war, or contest one another for supreme power. And Urwin does well showing the USA has competition to be reckoned with.
