2005RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO: PERFETTO. Il dominio dell'Occidente sul resto del mondo non è solo una conquista militare né una supremazia economica o tecnologica. È accompagnato dalla convinzione di appartenere a una civiltà che per dinamismo, forza e progresso si è posta al vertice della storia. Questo libro illustrato racconta la storia e le vicende della collaborazione del mondo ad opera delle potenze europee dal '500 alla fine dell'800. Ripercorre quindi la storia dell'Europa fuori dalla stessa Europa, prendendo in esame le trasformazioni economiche, sociali, culturali cui ha dato luogo quell'incontro-scontro tra civiltà che fin dal 1492 ha riunito, nell'idea dell'occidentalizzazione, popoli e culture di ogni parte del mondo.
