This is an ambitious history of 20th-century Europe. It expands the frontiers of Europe outwards to include not only Portugal and Ireland but also, and significantly, Eastern Europe and the Balkans. It also overturns the conventional myth of Europe as the cradle and safe haven of democracy and liberal values and shows how fragile they are.
