Cataclysm 1914: The First World War And The Making Of Modern World Politics
Haymarket Books (Verlag)
978-1-60846-634-4 (ISBN)
Cataclysm 1914 brings together leftist scholars from a variety of fields to explore the many different aspects of the origins, trajectories and consequences of the First World War. The collection seeks to visualise the conflict and all its immediate consequences (such as the Bolshevik Revolution and ascendency of US hegemony) as a defining moment in 20th century world politics, rupturing and reconstituting the 'modern' epoch in its many instantiations. Appeals to general readers and those focused on Marxian theory and strategy and leftist histories of the war.
Alexander Anievas Ph.D. (2011), University of Cambridge, Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellow. He is the author of Capital, the State, and War: Class Conflict and Geopolitics in the "Thirty Years Crisis", 1914-1945 (University of Michigan Press, 2014).
