Preface
This book describes, analyzes, and evaluates the three most significant world orders of the twentieth century: the Wilsonian order, the Leninist/Stalinist order, and the Hitlerian order. The major reason for this choice is that world order can be set only by a hegemonial power, an industrial, technological, and military power. The three world systems were anchored in three hegemonial states: the United States, the Soviet Union, and Nazi Germany.
