The Myth of Nationalism

Explores the intellectual, cultural, and political history of Europe from the Franco-Prussian War through World War I. Uses political cartoons, still photos, animation, and early film clips to examine nationalistic struggles in Germany, Italy, Russia, and the domination of the British Empire. Shows how the utilitarian attitude and political alliances formed as a result of the Industrial Revolution led to further deterioration and conflict.
