摘要:
This essay explores the chronological boundaries of the subject matter, asking whether it is still justifiable to date the origin of "today's world" to the year 1945. The text is divided into four sections that range from some preliminary considerations of the essay's underlying motivations to an understanding of the century based on its periodization. They also examine the main explanatory axes of the twentieth century and offer some additional considerations that underscore the importance of events.
