Week 11. Define Globalisation:
Lecture: a process of sustained world-wide integration (our third element of global
integrations) shaped by the circulation of people, commodities and ideas (our second
element of global interconnectedness)
Globalisation means that the world is becoming more interconnected by trade and culture
exchange. It is about the relations between civilizations.
How interconnections between different parts of the world have shaped historical
outcomes: This is very broad so think about for example the Americas and the Europeans
that travelled there, they brought diseases with them etc. etc. There are a lot of examples.
Just try to connect it to the world-wide integration and that the world is becoming more
interconnected.
2. Which forms of cultural and economic interaction characterized the precolonial
world between 1000 and 1500
Again, very broad, cultural think about religion, this characterized the precolonial word
between 1000 and 1500 (Islam came up). Economic, think about for example the precolonial
trade that made some countries very wealthy, also for example China and their inflation (ch
10 Tignor)
3. Eurocentrism:
eurocentrism is the whole of (world)views and perspectives in which the economic, political,
cultural and moral dominance of Europe (or the west) is taken for granted (gijsbert oonk).
Global history is trying to break down eurocentrism. Focusing on European culture or history
to the exclusion of a wider view of the world; implicitly regarding European culture as pre-
eminent.
Recognize expressions of this perspective in scholarly work: Curtin talks about it, also in
articles you can find it.
Week 2
1. General explanation of the main causes of European expansion:
After the black death old trade patterns were revived by the merchants in rebuilt states. The
Europeans started searching for direct trade routes to Asia, because the Ottoman empire
had blocked the entry. They wanted to spread their wealth towards Asia, once they arrived,
they realized Asia was developed. Also, they were looking for things to trade, for example in
Africa the raw materials and slaves.
Consequences:
North and South America, the original people that lived there died because of diseases
brought towards the continent by the Europeans and because of the labour they had to do.
Africa: a lot of slaves were brought from Africa to the Americas, a lot of consequences,
gender difference.
Middle East: not so much consequence, they were governed by the Ottomans
Asia: at some point colonies were built there, the Dutch Indies, India etc. Japan only wanted
to trade with the Dutch.
2. Mercantilism:
