As the nineteenth century became the twentieth and the dangers of rampant nationalism became more evident, people throughout the world embraced the idea that a new spirit of internationalism might be fostered by better communication and understanding among nations. Cultural internationalism came into its own after the end of World War I, when intellectuals and artists realized that one way of forging a stable and lasting international peace was to encourage international cultural exchange and cooperation. In Cultural Internationalism and World Order, noted historian Akira Iriye shows how widespread and serious a following this idea had. He describes a surprising array of efforts to foster cooperation, from the creation of an international language to student exchange programs, international lecture circuits, and other cultural activities. But he does not overlook the tensions the movement encountered with the real politics of the day, including the militarism that led up to the World War I, the rise of extreme strains of nationalism in Germany and Japan before World War II, and the bipolar rivalries of the Cold War. Iriye concludes that the effort of cultural internationalism can only be appreciated only in the context of world politics. A lasting and stable world order, he argues, cannot rely just on governments and power politics; it also depends upon the open exchange of cultures among peoples in pursuing common intellectual and cultural interests.

Global history is a fast growing area of historical study. With the acceleration of the age of globalization in the twentieth century, we have been able to view the world across national boundaries. From the speed of electronic communications and the coverage of global news to the proliferation of 'ethnic' restaurants, globalization is situated directly in our everyday lives, and affects our perceptions of world events. It also has a major impact on how we should study the history of the world, and this reader shows how that can be put into practice. Drawing together a wide international range of contributors, this ground-breaking work presents an important collection of essays to set globalization in its historical context. Thematic in focus, these essays also draw on perspectives from other disciplines, such as anthropology and development studies. The reader uses global history to view the history of the world through key themes that transcend national boundaries, such as terrorism, the environment, human rights, the information revolution and multinational corporations. 'The Global History' 'Reader' is essential reading for all students with an interest in learning more about this definitive new area of historical study.
