Sebastian Conrad is professor of history at the Free University of Berlin. He is the author of German Colonialism: A Short History, Globalisation and the Nation in Imperial Germany, and The Quest for the Lost Nation: Writing History in Germany and Japan in the American Century.
Until very recently, historians have looked at the past with the tools of the nineteenth century. But globalization has fundamentally altered our ways of knowing, and it is no longer possible to study nations in isolation or to understand world history as emanating from the West. This book reveals why the discipline of global history has emerged as the most dynamic and innovative field in history—one that takes the connectedness of the world as its point of departure, and that poses a fundamental challenge to the premises and methods of history as we know it.
What Is Global History? provides a comprehensive overview of this exciting new approach to history. The book addresses some of the biggest questions the discipline will face in the twenty-first century: How does global history differ from other interpretations of world history? How do we write a global history that is not Eurocentric yet does not fall into the trap of creating new centrisms? How can historians compare different societies and establish compatibility across space? What are the politics of global history? This in-depth and accessible book also explores the limits of the new paradigm and even its dangers, the question of whom global history should be written for, and much more.
Written by a leading expert in the field, What Is Global History? shows how, by understanding the world's past as an integrated whole, historians can remap the terrain of their discipline for our globalized present.

第二章 “世界”這一概念如何因時而變,全球史書寫的前史學史 古代曆史書寫的觀念,普遍從自身文明的視角來建構“世界”,即希羅多德筆下的文明與野蠻,波斯與雅典;司馬遷及儒傢的華夷觀;宗教的普世觀,基督教的三個王國等。 地理大發現之後的地理觀受到瞭衝擊,盡管他們仍普...
評分史學理論著作。我覺得寫的不好,但不妨礙他是本好書。不知道是刻意避免全球史成為典範(亦即明確透露方法與操作),還是寫作技巧不佳,整本書很讓人摸不著頭緒,它有種去中心化的思路在裏頭,讀者完全沒辦法從書中找齣什麼具體的全球史操作方法,乃至於明確的全球史思路模式。...
評分一、全球史的內容:新瓶裝舊酒的帝國爭霸史 “全球史”這個詞自流行之日起就顯得形跡可疑。被該領域的許多專傢認為是第一本當代意義上的“全球史”著作,書名居然是“西方的興起:人類共同體的曆史”。這很難不讓人聯想到文化帝國主義的糖衣炮彈:它總是跟在軍事帝國主義的堅船...
