Roller-Coaster: Europe, 1950-2017 is a sweeping historical analysis of Europe’s tumultuous journey from the devastation of World War II to the political and economic challenges of the 21st century. Renowned historian Ian Kershaw examines how the continent rebuilt itself after 1945, experienced unprecedented economic growth and political integration, and later faced crises such as the Cold War, the fall of the Soviet Union, the rise of the European Union, and the 2008 financial collapse.

Through a masterful blend of political, economic, and social history, Kershaw explores both Europe’s remarkable successes—peace, democracy, and prosperity—and its struggles with nationalism, economic inequality, and political fragmentation. His analysis of Brexit, populism, and migration offers a timely reflection on the future of Europe in an increasingly uncertain world.
