Stoljeće rata: Anglo-američka naftna politika i novi svjetski poredak

Stoljeće rata: Anglo-američka naftna politika i novi svjetski poredak

Frederick William Engdahl

The author finds the causes of international conflicts and wars in attempts to control money and energy resources. The book sheds light on the hidden principles and leading circles of East and West that were behind the events until the end of the Cold War

On the basis of oil, the "special relations" between Britain and the United States of America, established after the Versailles Peace Conference in 1919, were established. These two countries combined the power of oil and international finance into one of the most destructive forms of political hegemony in world history. The book reveals the way in which this Anglo-American "new world order" is shaped around the invisible threads of strategic control over oil and raw materials. The book also reveals shocking and previously unknown details about a secret meeting in Saltsjöbaden, Sweden in 1973, where a proposal was made to raise the price of oil by 400% to shore up the tottering dollar empire. The author sheds light on the role of oil policy in the establishment of the new post-war "informal empire" of neocolonialism, thereby providing a negative overview of the history of the last hundred years, while at the same time successfully avoiding the usual clichés of "right" and "left".

Polazište knjige je da je Srbe prosvjetiteljstvo sustiglo ne samo kasnije od svog europskog pohoda u 18. stoljeću, već su mu se odupirali i kad ih je sustiglo. Na Balkanu je povijest išla drugim putevima, imala je drugačije ritmove.
