Resumen del Editor

This book brings together Professor Ken Maxwell's essays published since 2011 on global trends. This book is most likely to be read initially by the many followers of the work of Dr. Kenneth Maxwell, the historian. He is a well-respected and well-known historian of the history of Brazil and the Iberian Peninsula.

Even though much of his work focuses on the 18th century, he is not an expert as understood in today's society. He is more like the philosophes of the 18th century, focusing on a subject but with a wide view.

Together, these essays provide a comprehensive perspective on the modern world as seen through the eyes of a professional historian who has worked extensively on the 18th Century. These essays reflect an understanding of the world through an unusual lens.

The book provides an essayist view on the changing global order seen through the perspective of specific events, countries, and leaders. It provides an important contribution to our thinking about the new global disorder and what comes next.
