dc.description.abstractIt is hard to overstate the degree to which the First World War disordered the international system. It materially, irreversibly altered the principal structures that had defined the nineteenth century global order: the distribution of power within and between the rival empires; the relations between classes within and across societies; and the relationship between states and markets more generally. This alone was a cataclysm virtually without precedent in human history. And, yet, it was only the beginning of the end of the First Era of Globalisation. Among those structures that did manage to survive the Great War, most were hollowed by the Great Depression and laid waste by the Second World War. Yet, at the same time, the shattered order created space for new actors and new ideas to come to the fore. Women, working people and others from the “peripheries” within and across Europe’s imperial orders pressed themselves upon the global stage, exerting more influence than ever before. In that sense the twentieth century’s Great Destabilisation was not merely destructive but also generative. It generated new models, new sensibilities and new approaches advanced by new people from unconventional perspectives and backgrounds. Seldom was there better cause for collective soul-searching; and seldom has there been richer, and more diverse, inquiry into the nature and causes of global order. The interwar period was thus one of the most challenging, but also one of the most innovative, periods in modern history. To be sure, some of the “new” forms and ideas, like fascism, were abhorrent—exceeded in their intellectual bankruptcy only by their practical brutality. But others, like the many varieties of socialism, were varied in their design and execution. Some such experiments, like those in Bolshevik Russia, proved immensely disappointing—all the more so because others, like those in Labour’s Britain, had demonstrated such great promise. And, of course, the stalwart liberal orthodoxy was itself wholly reinvented and given new births in a wide range of forms, from John Dewey’s “new liberalism” to the Germans’ ordoliberalism (Dewey 1935, 12).pt_PT
