Globalization and The Great Exhibition : The Victorian New World Order Hardback
by Paul Young
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Nineteenth-Century Writing and Culture series
Hardback
Description
This book examines the Great Exhibition as a decisive moment in the formation of a capitalist world picture.
In so doing it foregrounds a vision of peace and progress which took hold of British society, within the Crystal Palace and beyond.
It emphasizes too that this Victorian understanding of global order legitimized imperial ambition.
