On this week's episode of History Reconsidered, Sumantra Maitra and Jarrett Stepman address the online controversy over Winston Churchill and World War II.
In an interview with Tucker Carlson, amateur historian Darryl Cooper--who goes by the social media pseudonym "Martyr Made"--argued that it was Churchill who ultimately drove events leading to World War II.
Maitra and Stepman give their take on what led to World War II, how we should view Churchill, and the problem with the decline in the credibility of academic institutions. Maitra explains how many of Adolf Hitler's aggressive actions proved his irrationality as a statesman, but concludes that no one individual was responsible for the war taking place.
This episode covers other revisionist histories of the war, including the idea that Joseph Stalin was the primary culprit of launching World War II and manipulated the United States into giving the USSR domination over Eastern Europe.
