History Derailed by Ivan T Berend

Historian Ivan Berend turns his attention to Central and Eastern Europe in the 19th century, a turbulent period. Extending up to World War I, the period contained the seeds of developments and crises that continue to haunt the region today.
"Always interesting.. a provocative overview of a complex region that is still undergoing change... Highly recommended." - Choice: Current Reviews For Academic Libraries "For Berend, history is a whole, and when cultural, economic, social, and political trends are taken together, they distinguish central and east Europeans from the rest of Europe.... Berend, a first-rate economic historian, treats the often neglected economic dimension with special skill." - Foreign Affairs"
Ivan T. Berend is Professor of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. Author of Decades of Crisis: Central and Eastern Europe before World War II (California, 1998) and of Central and Eastern Europe 1944-1993 (1996), he has now, with his informal "trilogy," performed the remarkable feat of laying the entire modern history of the region before the English-speaking audience.
