Synopsis "1992 The Year That Shaped the World We Live In"

1992A year so groundbreaking and pivotal that its impact is still being felt over thirty years later.Events as diverse as the end of the Cold War to the explosion of the Grunge Rock scene in Seattle, the horrors of ethnic cleansing in the Bosnian War, the anguish of the Rodney King Riots, and more, all combine to make this the most consequential year in recent history. In a subject that has rarely, if ever, been thoroughly examined, author Matthew Smith examines six crucial events and makes the case for how they directly affect the world we live in. Societal issues such as police brutality and international ones such as the fight against climate change and how the world responds to humanitarian crises are all rooted in the events of 1992. Compelling personalities from Ross Perot, Kurt Cobain, Boris Yeltsin, and Dr. Mae C. Jemison to more sinister ones such as Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic are examined in great detail. The reader is in for a roller coaster ride that spans "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from Nirvana to Rodney King pleading, "Can we all just get along?" The reader will walk away with many impressions, and boring will not be one of them.
