The Pursuit of Power: Technology, History, and Modern Society In this groundbreaking book, William H. McNeill takes readers on a journey through a millennium of human upheaval, exploring the evolution of military technology and its impact on society from the 11th century to the present day. With unparalleled erudition, McNeill moves seamlessly between European, Chinese, and Islamic cultures, weaving together historical, technological, socioeconomic, and political developments into a grand synthesis that offers a sweeping perspective on the history of warfare and its consequences. The central argument of the book is that the commercial transformation of world society in the 11th century led to an increasingly market-driven approach to military activity, with rulers and command economies replacing the market control of large-scale human effort. This shift has profound implications for our current fears and challenges, and McNeill hopes that his work will offer a foundation for wiser action in the future.
Стремление к власти: технологии, история и современное общество В этой новаторской книге Уильям Х. Макнил проводит читателей через тысячелетие человеческих потрясений, исследуя эволюцию военных технологий и их влияние на общество с XI века до наших дней. С беспрецедентной эрудицией Макнил плавно движется между европейской, китайской и исламской культурами, соединяя исторические, технологические, социально-экономические и политические события в грандиозный синтез, который предлагает широкий взгляд на историю войны и ее последствия. Центральным аргументом книги является то, что коммерческая трансформация мирового общества в XI веке привела к все более рыночному подходу к военной деятельности, когда правители и командные экономики заменяют рыночный контроль крупномасштабных человеческих усилий. Этот сдвиг имеет глубокие последствия для наших нынешних страхов и проблем, и Макнил надеется, что его работа послужит основой для более мудрых действий в будущем.
La recherche du pouvoir : la technologie, l'histoire et la société moderne Dans ce livre novateur, William H. McNeil guide les lecteurs à travers un millénaire de bouleversements humains, explorant l'évolution des technologies militaires et leur impact sur la société du 11ème siècle à nos jours. Avec une érudition sans précédent, McNeil se déplace sans heurts entre les cultures européenne, chinoise et islamique, reliant les événements historiques, technologiques, socio-économiques et politiques en une grande synthèse qui offre une vision large de l'histoire de la guerre et de ses conséquences. L'argument central du livre est que la transformation commerciale de la société mondiale au XIXe siècle a conduit à une approche de plus en plus marchande des activités militaires, lorsque les dirigeants et les économies de commandement remplacent le contrôle du marché des efforts humains à grande échelle. Ce changement a des conséquences profondes sur nos peurs et nos problèmes actuels, et McNeil espère que son travail servira de base à une action plus sage à l'avenir.

Das Streben nach Macht: Technologie, Geschichte und moderne Gesellschaft In diesem bahnbrechenden Buch führt William H. McNeill die ser durch ein Jahrtausend menschlicher Umwälzungen und untersucht die Entwicklung der Militärtechnologie und ihre Auswirkungen auf die Gesellschaft vom 11. Jahrhundert bis heute. Mit beispielloser Gelehrsamkeit bewegt sich McNeill nahtlos zwischen der europäischen, chinesischen und islamischen Kultur und verbindet historische, technologische, sozioökonomische und politische Entwicklungen zu einer grandiosen Synthese, die einen breiten Blick auf die Geschichte des Krieges und seine Folgen bietet. Das zentrale Argument des Buches ist, dass die kommerzielle Transformation der Weltgesellschaft im 11. Jahrhundert zu einem zunehmend marktorientierten Ansatz für militärische Aktivitäten geführt hat, bei dem Herrscher und Kommandowirtschaften die Marktkontrolle großer menschlicher Anstrengungen ersetzen. Diese Verschiebung hat tiefgreifende Auswirkungen auf unsere gegenwärtigen Ängste und Herausforderungen, und McNeill hofft, dass seine Arbeit als Grundlage für klügeres Handeln in der Zukunft dienen wird.

Güç Arayışı: Teknoloji, Tarih ve Modern Toplum Bu çığır açan kitapta William H. McNeill, okuyucuları askeri teknolojinin evrimini ve 11. yüzyıldan günümüze toplum üzerindeki etkisini araştıran bin yıllık bir insan ayaklanmasından geçiriyor. Eşi benzeri görülmemiş bir bilgiyle McNeill, Avrupa, Çin ve İslam kültürleri arasında sorunsuz bir şekilde hareket ederek, tarihsel, teknolojik, sosyoekonomik ve politik olayları, savaş tarihi ve sonrasının geniş bir görünümünü sunan büyük bir sentezde birleştiriyor. Kitabın temel argümanı, 11. yüzyılda dünya toplumunun ticari dönüşümünün, büyük ölçekli insan çabalarının pazar kontrolünün yerini alan yöneticiler ve komuta ekonomileri ile askeri faaliyetlere giderek daha fazla pazar temelli bir yaklaşıma yol açmasıdır. Bu değişimin mevcut korkularımız ve zorluklarımız için derin etkileri var ve McNeil, çalışmalarının gelecekte daha akıllıca eylemleri bilgilendireceğini umuyor.
البحث عن القوة: التكنولوجيا والتاريخ والمجتمع الحديث في هذا الكتاب الرائد، يأخذ ويليام إتش ماكنيل القراء خلال ألفية من الاضطرابات البشرية، ويستكشف تطور التكنولوجيا العسكرية وتأثيرها على المجتمع من القرن الحادي عشر إلى الوقت الحاضر. مع سعة اطلاع غير مسبوقة، يتحرك ماكنيل بسلاسة بين الثقافات الأوروبية والصينية والإسلامية، ويدمج الأحداث التاريخية والتكنولوجية والاجتماعية والاقتصادية والسياسية في تركيبة كبيرة تقدم نظرة واسعة لتاريخ الحرب وما تلاها. الحجة المركزية للكتاب هي أن التحول التجاري للمجتمع العالمي في القرن الحادي عشر أدى إلى نهج قائم على السوق بشكل متزايد للنشاط العسكري، حيث حل الحكام والاقتصادات القيادية محل سيطرة السوق على المساعي البشرية واسعة النطاق. هذا التحول له آثار عميقة على مخاوفنا وتحدياتنا الحالية، ويأمل ماكنيل أن يوجه عمله إجراءات أكثر حكمة في المستقبل.
