WiSe 12/13: Theories of Global History

Margrit Pernau

Kommentar

Introduction to Theories and Controversies in Global History This seminar will provide an introduction to the current debates in global history. National history, which for the last two centuries provided the obvious frame of reference for any historian, is giving way to an emphasis on movements (by actors, goods and ideas) across boundaries. Equally important is the investigation of the boundaries themselves, no longer as given, but as the result of a creation process. Movement and its prevention, globalization and localization, therefore have to be viewed together. In a first step we will read and discuss a number of foundational texts on global history, new imperial and entangled history, transnational history and histoire croisée. The second step will focus on possible research topics the students are personally interested in exploring, and explore how these and other texts can help them structure their research. Schließen
