International History

A Cultural Approach

New Paperback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Beginning with the rise of nationalism and internationalism after the Vienna Congress of 1815, and examining the age of population movement and empire, global cultures after 1945, and transnational connections after 1970, this study explores the cultural dimension of international relations. The authors argue that culture is an integral aspect of both geopolitical and economic relations: ‘It does not simply add a layer of meaning to history; it changes our understanding of that history’.
