Infos

This third volume of the series A Traditionalist History of the Great War provides an in-depth reassessment of the events leading up to the outbreak of the First World War. It views the systemic failure of Great Power diplomacy as the result of an increasing existential incompatibility-and growing power imbalance-between the Modernity-aligned Triple Entente and the Tradition-aligned Germanic empires. The final breakdown of international diplomacy in 1914 was preceded by major crises and peripheral wars that shaped not only the alignment of the Great Powers, but also the mindset of their leaders, who found themselves facing historical forces beyond their control. This book reconstructs the crises and wars of the pre-war years, as well as the military calculations of July 1914, showing how they are consistent with an overall geopolitical trajectory that inexorably led to the final show-down between the forces of rising Modernity and waning Tradition.
