"This volume is the first of a new series from the Oxford Centre for Global History. It seeks to apply global history rather than merely preach it, and suggests a number of ways in which this can be done. East Asian and Islamic perspectives are here taken as seriously as European ones. The volume insists on depth in historical analysis, or longue durée, and speaks to those interested in medieval and ancient history quite as much as modern history. At the same time, it offers case studies from a wide geographical range. Chapters range from historical sociology to economic history, from ancient and medieval to modern times, from European expansion to constitutional history, from the United States across South Asia to China."--Provided by publisher.
