Zusammenfassung:By the start of the 21st century many of the foundations of postwar culture had disappeared: Europe had been rebuilt and, as the EU, had become one of the world's largest economies; the United States' claim to global dominance was threatened; and the postwar social democratic consensus was being replaced by market-led neoliberalism.
