Viewed through a global lens, familiar landmarks of German history—the Reformation, the Revolution of 1848, the Nazi regime—are transformed, while others are unearthed and explored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlackbourn reveals Germany's leading role in creating modern universities and its sinister involvement in slave-trade economies. A global history for a global age, \u003cem\u003eGermany in the World\u003c\/em\u003e is a bold and original account that upends the idea that a nation's history should be written as though it took place entirely within that nation's borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46796294422764,"sku":"9781324095125","price":45.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/11635643482659.jpg?v=1757089210","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/germany-in-the-world-by-david-blackbourn-9781324095125","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
