The author builds a new interpretation of world history in the modern age, structured by the rise and decline of three hegemonic countries-the Netherlands, Great Britain, and the United States. He elaborates the historical connections of economics and war in each hegemonic cycle, with particular attention to three hegemonic wars , 1618-48, 1793-1815, and 1914-45.
