The rise and fall of the great powers

---

This is a book about national and international power in the modern"-that is, post-Renaissance-pe riod. It seeks to trace and to explain how the various Great Powers have risen and fallen, relative to each other, over the five centuries since the formation of the "new monarchies" of western Europe and the begin nings of the transoceanic, global system of states. Inevitably, it con cerns itself a great deal with wars, especially those major, drawn-out conflicts fought by coalitions of Great Powers which had such an im- pact upon the international order, but it is not strictly a book about military history. It also concerns itself with tracing the changes which have occurred in the global economic balances since 1500
