Book Synopsis
Global Interdependence provides a new account of world history from the end of WWII to the present, an era when transnational communities challenged the long domination of the nation-state. Leading scholars elucidate the political, economic, cultural, and environmental forces that have shaped the planet in the past sixty years.

Trade Review
Most world histories of the post-1945 era place the Cold War and the rise of American power at the center of the story. In this impressive new work, Iriye and his collaborators focus on the deeper trends that have unsettled and reshaped the contemporary world system… In Iriye’s inspiring historical vision, trans-nationalism has helped usher in a more stable and peaceful world. -- G. John Ikenberry * Foreign Affairs *
Indispensible for anyone interested in the modern world. -- W. B. Whisenhunt * Choice *
