Short description In Europe between Democracy and Dictatorship, Conan Fischer offers a captivating analysis of Europe's turbulent history during the first half of the twentieth century. After many largely peaceful and prosperous years, the continent was plunged into two world wars and a traumatic series of national revolutionary upheavals. Fischer traces and evaluates the history of these great events in concise and accessible chapters. He also argues that parallel to Europe's desolate record of upheaval and war, more benign developments were creating the unmistakable and essentially positive foundations of contemporary European life.
