History of Russian Civil War - HOME   History of Russian Civil War A Short History of World War I by James Stokesbury, World War I was a bloodletting so vast and unprecedented that for a generation it was known simply as the Great War.

French Politics Culture and Society - HOME   French Politics Culture and Society Can We Live Together?: Equality and Difference by Alain Touraine, In this book, a leading French social thinker grapples with the gap between the tendency toward globalization of economic relations and mass culture and the increasingly sectarian nature of our social identities as members of ethnic, religious, or national groups. Though at first glance, it might seem as if the answer to the question "Can we live together?" is that we already do live together -- watching the same television programs, buying the same clothes, and even using the same language to communicate from one country to another -- the author argues that in important ways, we are farther than ever from belonging to the same society or the same culture. Our small societies are not gradually merging into one vast global society; instead, the simultaneously political, territorial, and cultural entities that we once called societies or countries are breaking up before our eyes in the wake of ethnic, political, and religious conflict. The result is that we live together only to the extent that we make the same gestures and use ...
