ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book explores some specific suggestions for the further pursuit of the study of Russian history. It considers the move from European towards Atlantic order. Karl Lamprecht suggested that the greatest problem facing the scientific history of humankind was the deduction of a universal law from the history of the most important communities that is those European countries like Germany which had undergone modernising experiences, along with the United States of America (USA) and Japan. The book describes some approaches to world order from 1923 to 1962. The First World War and the associated Russian Revolution of 1917 led to a significant shift in emphasis. Soviet Russia was soon cut off, along with much of its prehistory; the Teutonic idea was dead, but the USA moved towards closer inclusion in a reformed Anglo-Saxon or English-speaking group.
