Mark Mazower Biography

Mark Mazower is one of the most popular and richest Historian who was born on February 20, 1958 in London, England, United Kingdom. Growing growing up within Golders Green was a weird experience for me, as the area has no past. It was quite a shock to learn it was Golders Green during the 20th century was filled with the world’s most influential anarchists who were having a drink with my grandparents and recuperating from revolution. This made the entire place seem more logical.

Mazower earned the degree of BA Classics and Philosophy at Oxford University of Oxford in 1981 and his doctorate from the same institution in 1988. Mazower also has the MA of International Relations in International Affairs from Johns Hopkins University (1983). Prior to joining Columbia, Mazower taught at Birkbeck, University of London as well as The University of Sussex and Princeton University.

Mazower’s book, No Enchanted Palace, was published in 2009. It narrates the origins of the United Nations and its strict ties to colonialism and its predecessor organisation, the League of Nations. In Governing the World (2012), this narrative is taken one step further, and the history of international organisations in general is evaluated, beginning with the Concert of Europe at the start of the nineteenth century.

Mazower’s 2018 inter-generational biography of his own family, What you did not tell, described their lives, education and politics and how it influences his interest in history, place, and the writing of biography.Caroline Moorehead, an acclaimed biographer, on reviewing this book, wrote of his scholarly reconstruction of a family’s life meticulously drawn from archives and collections of papers in the UK, Russia, Belgium and Israel and family dairies, letters and interviews. Not simply a biographical narrative, Moorehead explains, since woven into it is a vast and rich picture of left wing European Jewry from the founding of the Bund workers’ union. HIs prodigious historical reach is matched by his affectionate portrait of a family and a people ‘whose fight for justice was based on their own personal knowledge of poverty and exploitation.’
