Summary
Adam Tooze: The Flood
The Great War and the Reshaping of the World Order
1916. -1931.
The Great War significantly shook the economies of many countries and affected unprecedented changes in the social and industrial order, causing consequences on a global scale and calling into question the position of the leading world powers until then.
In the midst of the Great War, with millions of dead and no sign of an end to the conflict, nations around the world begin to falter. The world centers of industry and capital, which were located in Europe, are losing their positions, which are occupied by the United States. There is a new distribution of world power and influence, so that America becomes the world economic leader on which European economies depended.
A century later, Adam Tooze examines this time of "seismic disruption" in history, questioning the existing narrative about the Great War and its far-reaching consequences. From the day the United States entered the war in 1917, until the brink of global financial collapse, Tooze depicts the changes in the world, created under the influence of American economic and military power, as well as the ways in which countries faced the American assumption of the role of the leading world power, including the turn to fascism. This is a work of great originality that will fundamentally change the way we look at the legacy of the First World War.
