10 YEARS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD: A TIMELINE OF EVENTS FROM 2001

Book ID/图书代码: 12070011B47649

English Summary/英文概要: September 11, 2001, is considered the main event, but the changes of the decade go far beyond the menace of terrorism and the war on terror. The technological revolution, the wide use of the Internet, and the advent of social media are just some of the innovations that grew to define the decade. The war on terror and its strong rhetoric hid these phenomena. The purpose of this book is to show the true patterns of change—those innovations that will influence coming decades. This is more than a timeline, it is the tale of an extraordinary decade. Within each year, Napoleoni presents events not in a strict chronology but more as we might remember them, often with the most significant events recalled first. Thus the main topics—politics, economics, people, technology, and the environment—cross over constantly, showing how they are all interlinked and how globalization is speeding up the pace of change in our world.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 2001年9月11日,被人们认为是世界上最重要的事件之一,然后近十年间的变化,远远超出了恐怖主义的威胁和反恐战争。技术革命、互联网的广泛应用、社会媒体的出现等,正是这些变革,定义了过往的十年。反恐战争以及浓烈的华而不实的语言隐藏了这些现象。本书的目的是向读者展示真正的变化过程和模式。这些变革将影响未来的十年。这是一个时间表,它是一个非凡的十年故事。在每一年,纳波莱奥尼事件并不是发生在精确的年代,然而却让我们记住了,并且经常与最重大的事件一同回忆起。因此我们的主要话题——政治、经济、人、技术以及环境——不断的跨越,显示着它们之间互不脱节的微妙联系,以及世界全球化如何在这样的变革中加快它的步伐。(兼职翻译-YZH)
