War and Social Change in Modern Europe: The Great Transformation Revisited Book

Halperin traces the persistence of traditional class structures during the development of industrial capitalism in Europe, and the way in which these structures shaped states and state behavior and generated conflict. The book focuses on the interrelationship of social forces, industrial expansion, and conflict in Europe between 1789 and 1945., in part through a critique of Karl Polanyi's The Great Transformation (1944). Its account of this period challenges not only Polanyi's analysis, but a variety of influential perspectives on nationalism, development, conflict, international systems change, and globalization.Read More
