The Height of the Eagles' Flight
Historical Essays on the Global Present
Today, everyone talks about globalisation – but what does it actually mean? Ever since the publication of his bestseller Die Verwandlung der Welt (The Transformation of the World) which has been published in 10 languages, Jürgen Osterhammel has been seen as one of Germany’s preeminent voices on contemporary history.
In this essay collection, he explores the historical processes that ultimately paved the way for the global present, drawing on an ubiquitous figure of thought in the 21st century. Anyone with an interest in understanding the links between past and present will enjoy these fine essays: the author takes a bird’s eye view without losing sight of important details.
