We have summarized here the essential of this book by the author. GLOBAL POLITICS AND ECONOMY 1945-1973Consequences of the world warAs a product of World War II, tens of millions of people died around the world. The most affected nation was the Soviet Union, with twenty million people dead. But a huge number of deaths were also recorded in other countries. In Germany, the Nazi regime led to the death of millions of people of Jewish, Slavic, or political dissident origin, in addition to those killed on the front lines.
In the Far East, Japan lost only one and a half million soldiers, not counting the civilian population. Two and a half million people died in China. Adding the deaths from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and other European countries, the total death toll is estimated at around fifty million. This was not only a human catastrophe, but also had disastrous economic consequences, because the industrial workforce was devastated.
