TY - GEN TY - GEN T1 - Why empires fall : Rome, America and the future of the West A1 - Heather, Peter, kirjoittaja A1 - Rapley, John, kirjoittaja LA - eng PP - UK PB - Allen Lane YR - 2023 UL - https://kansalliskirjasto.finna.fi/Record/fikka.5657832 AB - Over the last three centuries, the West rose to dominate the planet. Then, suddenly, around the turn of the millennium, history reversed. Faced with economic stagnation and internal political division, the West has found itself in rapid decline. But this is not the first time the global order has witnessed such a dramatic rise and fall. The Roman Empire followed a similar arc from dizzying power to disintegration - a fact that is more than a strange historical coincidence. In 'Why Empires Fall', Peter Heather and John Rapley use this Roman past to think anew about the contemporary West, its state of crisis, and what paths we could take out of it.
