Sample Book Insights:
#1 The French were also responsible for the second betrayal, when they sent their forces to suppress the Vietnamese, West Indians, and Africans who had once been their colonial subjects. This happened in 1955.
#2 The French government used the same logic as John Locke to claim that only Europeans were competent users of God’s nature, and that only they could own it.
#3 In 1952, French author Albert Sauvy wrote a tripartite division of the planet into the First, Second, and Third Worlds. When Sauvy wrote in the Parisian press, most people understood what it meant to live in the First and Second Worlds.
#4 The Cold War was a fundamentally unequal conflict between the First and Second Worlds, and it was experienced that way on both sides. The USSR and the United States presented each other as equal adversaries, although the former had an economic base that was far inferior to the latter.
