The Revenge of History: The Battle for the Twenty-First Century

by Seumas Milne - £19.99  Verso Books (2013)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781781680919 | ISBN 10: 1781680914

One of Britain’s foremost political writers confronts the decade of living dangerous: from 9/11 to the Arab Spring and beyond.
From 9/11 to the Arab Spring and beyond – encompassing the economic crisis, the rise of China, and conflicts in the Middle East – The Revenge of History turns the orthodoxies of the past generation on their head.
 
In this coruscating account of the first decade of the twenty-first century, Seumas Milne presents a powerful indictment of the United States, a global and corporate empire in decline. Milne also examines the causes of the credit crisis and the Great Recession, reveals the policy of humanitarian military intervention to be a failed land grab, explains the dynamo behind the roaring Chinese economy and discovers new models of society flourishing in Latin America. Brilliant, bold and always incisive, The Revenge of History is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand what has gone wrong.
