When we think of the Second World War, why do we so often look to Europe and what if some of the conflict's most profound consequences unfolded not in the West, but across Asia? On today's episode, Professor Hans van der Ven

Historian of modern China and professor of modern Chinese history at the University of Cambridge joined Hannah Lucinda Smith to challenge a Eurocentric understanding of the Second World War in showing how the conflict laid the foundations of Asia as we know it today. Let's join our host, Hannah Lucinda Smith, now with more. The Second World War was, of course, a global war, but it is generally studied and understood through a European and American lens. One of its major arenas was Asia, and in his new book, Blooddawn, historian Hans van der Ven offers a radically different interpretation, framing the war on that continent as the spark for nationalist movements that would lead to the formation of today's modern Asian states. Hans, welcome to Intelligence Squared.
