In the spirit of Why Nations Fail, political science professor Bruce Bueno de Mesquita tackles one of history’s greatest mysteries: why the West became the world’s most powerful civilization.
The idea of Western exceptionalism—the idea that European civilizations are freer, richer, and less violent—is a pervasive and powerful political concept. In some societies, it has been a source of peace and prosperity, and in others, ethnic cleansing and chaos.
Drawing on his expertise in political maneuvering, dealmaking, and game theory, political science professor Bruce Bueno de Mesquita takes readers back to the Middle Ages and debunks the common myth that Western civilizations are “freer, richer, and less violent” and explains how agreements between the church and the government shaped the course of European history and fueled the economic growth of entire regions.
