講義概要 /Course description |
This class will introduce approaches to global issues through the study of global history. The spread of globalization is one of the most important processes of our time. The central questions to be considered: What has globalization looked like in the past? Do past legacies of globalization or regionalism help or hinder a ‘new’ round of globalization? How is global history different from national or regional history? How have global historians written about the formation of the modern world system? How can the approaches of global history be incorporated in our own research? Among the issues we will consider are the development of global trade; global cities; flow of commodities, people (immigration) and money; the diffusion of technology; diffusion of ideas; creation of globalized cultural systems. |
