How did leaders as diverse as Lenin and Lloyd George, Hitler and Churchill, Mussolini and Roosevelt, Chiang Kaishek and Mao Zedong view theworld? When they looked at maps, what areas stood out?Were they more interested in political borders, economic resources, race, or class? And how far didthey want to transform what they saw? In this path-breaking book, thirteen leading historians addressthese questions. They lookat the underlying political, cultural and social environments in whichvarious leaders developed their world views and rose to influence. They explore the extent to which these leaders b2 s beliefs influenced their actions once in power. And, they reassess some of the keyquestions of the period, from the familiar distinction between status quo, revisionist and revolutionary figures to the deeper clashes between liberal internationalism and its challengers, especiallyMarxism on the left andHitler's brutal form of imperialism on the right.
