A new account of the history of Europe between 1890 and 1918 in the Oldenbourg series Grundriss der Geschichte. Differentiated but still easy to read, this volume traces the domestic and foreign development of European states in the "age of Imperialism." On the basis of the latest research, it paints a picture of an epoch in which Europe was finally on its way to modernity including all of the consequences, both positive and negative.
