The author, Jerry Muller of the Catholic University of America, argues that the brutal genocides and forced population shifts of the 20th century helped to make peace possible. With a few exceptions, Europe's ethnic and state boundaries now match (ie, most Germans live in Germany, Greece is dominated by Greeks and so on).
