Description
Globalisation, Democracy and Terrorism by Eric J. Hobsbawm In this collection of thought-provoking essays, Eric Hobsbawm examines the complex issues that have dominated recent debates: globalisation, democracy, and terrorism. The impact of these topics is felt in our daily lives, from economic trends to fears of violent attacks. Hobsbawm explores a range of subjects, including war and peace, public order, nationalism, and the future prospects for democracy. He provides historical context and insights into the lessons that can be learned from past events, with a particular focus on the Middle East and Western imperialism. Engaging and erudite, Hobsbawm's essays offer valuable perspectives on the world we live in today.
