Synopsis Exceptionalism and Industrialisation by : Leandro Prados de la Escosura
This 2004 book explores the question of British exceptionalism in the period from the Glorious Revolution to the Congress of Vienna. Leading historians examine why Great Britain emerged from years of sustained competition with its European rivals in a discernible position of hegemony in the domains of naval power, empire, global commerce, agricultural efficiency, industrial production, fiscal capacity and advanced technology. They deal with Britain's unique path to industrial revolution and distinguish four themes on the interactions between its emergence as a great power and as the first industrial nation. First, they highlight growth and industrial change, the interconnections between agriculture, foreign trade and industrialisation. Second, they examine technological change and, especially, Britain's unusual inventiveness. Third, they study her institutions and their role in facilitating economic growth. Fourth and finally, they explore British military and naval supremacy, showing how this was achieved and how it contributed to Britain's economic supremacy.

Synopsis The Ebbing of European Ascendancy by : Sally Marks
In the decades between the World Wars, the global power structure was transformed. The once great European powers were no longer ascendant, even if they had not yet acknowledged it, and the U.S., a regional power as of 1914, now belonged to a new category: "superpower." What happened in this short period to usher in such a dramatic change? The Ebbing of European Ascendancy explores the crucial factors, including the international history of the period in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, as single interlocking whole to clearly examine one of the most dramatic, worldwide power shifts in the last century.

Synopsis Europe Adrift by : John Newhouse
John Newhouse - a guest scholar at the Brookings Institution and a consultant to the State Department - is perfectly placed to examine the deep and continuing divisions in a unified Germany, France's reluctance to accept Germany's ascendancy in European affairs, the self-marginalization of Britain, the lapses of the European Union, and the complex politics of NATO enlargement.

Synopsis The Left Case Against the EU by : Costas Lapavitsas
Many on the Left see the European Union as a fundamentally benign project with the potential to underpin ever greater cooperation and progress. If it has drifted rightward, the answer is to fight for reform from within. In this iconoclastic polemic, economist Costas Lapavitsas demolishes this view. He contends that the EU’s response to the Eurozone crisis represents the ultimate transformation of the union into a neoliberal citadel that institutionally embeds austerity, privatization, and wage cuts. Concurrently, the rise of German hegemony has divided the EU into an unstable core and dependent peripheries. These related developments make the EU impervious to meaningful reform. The solution is therefore a direct challenge to the EU project that stresses popular and national sovereignty as preconditions for true internationalist socialism. Lapavitsas’s powerful manifesto for a left opposition to the EU upends the wishful thinking that often characterizes the debate and will be a challenging read for all on the Left interested in the future of Europe.

Synopsis The Ebbing of European Ascendancy by : Sally Marks
From 1914 to 1945, the European great powers ceased to dominate the globe. In their place, the US, primarily a regional power in 1914, became a 'super power' along with the half-Asian USSR. This text addresses what happened to work such a change.
