| Summary: | The Global 1980s takes an international perspective on the upheaval across the world during the long 1980s (1979-1991) with the end of the Cold War, a move towards a free-market economic system and the increasing connectedness of the world. Offering an overview of a decade in transition, as the global order established after 1945 broke down and a new, globalized world order emerged, and supported by case studies from across the world, this truly global book is an essential resource for students and scholars of the long 1980s and the twentieth-century more generally. |
