"The Interwar World collects an international group of over 50 contributors to discuss, analyse and interpret this crucial period in twentieth century history. A comprehensive understanding of the interwar era has been limited by Euro-American approaches and strict adherence to the temporal limits of the world wars. The volume's contributors challenge the era's accepted temporal and geographic framings by privileging global processes and interactions. Each contribution takes a global, thematic approach, integrating world regions into a shared narrative. Three central questions frame the chapters. . First, when was the interwar? Viewed globally, the years 1918 and 1939 are arbitrary limits, and the volume explicitly engages with the artificiality of the temporal framework while closely examining the specific dynamics of the 1920s and 1930s. Second, where was the interwar? Contributors use global history methodologies and training in varied world regions to decenter Euro-American frameworks, engaging directly with the usefulness of the interwar as both an era and an analytical category. Third, how global was the interwar? Authors trace accelerating connections in areas such as public health and mass culture counterbalanced by processes of economic protectionism, exclusive nationalism, and limits to migration. By approaching the era thematically, the volume disaggregates and interrogates the meaning of the 'global' in this era. As a comprehensive guide, this volume offers overviews of key themes of the interwar period for undergraduates, while offering up-to-date historiographical insights for postgraduates and scholars interested in this pivotal period in global history"--

The era from 1400 to 1800 saw intense biological, commercial, and cultural exchanges, and the creation of global connections on an unprecedented scale. Divided into two books, Volume 6 of The Cambridge World History considers these critical transformations. The first book examines the material and political foundations of the era, including global considerations of the environment, disease, technology, and cities, along with regional studies of empires in the eastern and western hemispheres, crossroads areas such as the Indian Ocean, Central Asia, and the Caribbean, and sites of competition and conflict, including Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Mediterranean. The second book focuses on patterns of change, examining the expansion of Christianity and Islam, migrations, warfare, and other topics on a global scale, and offering insightful detailed analyses of the Columbian exchange, slavery, silver, trade, entrepreneurs, Asian religions, legal encounters, plantation economies, early industrialism, and the writing of history.

Este libro homenaje se formula como un diálogo abierto entre grupos de investigación europeos y americanos sobre problemáticas referidas a una visión Atlántica de la proyección de los Imperios Ibéricos en la Edad Moderna. Los ejes convocantes son aquellos que a lo largo de su dilatada trayectoria en la investigación histórica ha desarrollado y publicado la Dra. María Inés Carzolio, tanto en Argentina como en el extranjero: Las raíces medievales de la Europa Moderna, las monarquías del Antiguo Régimen, la organización del espacio social y los agentes sociales en la modernidad, cuestiones sobre creencias y religiosidad, estudios urbanos y, finalmente, problemáticas en torno al campo discursivo y cultural.

Con una descripción de los procesos históricos que forjaron el mundo moderno, este libro destaca algunas de las ideas que, durante los últimos siglos, varios filósofos fueron creando sobre el devenir, el sentido y la finalidad de la historia; así mismo, subraya las discusiones que se generaron en torno a esos procesos y a esas ideas y resalta la vigencia y utilidad que algunas de ellas tienen y nos proporcionan para comprender la historia en términos distintos a los que solemos asimilarla, esto es, no como una sucesión de hechos y acontecimientos acaecidos en el pasado, sino como aquello que, siendo obra y resultado de la acción humana, afecta e influencia nuestro ser y nuestro estar en el mundo y, por lo mismo, como aquello ante lo cual estamos llamados a asumir una actitud responsable en cuanto artífices y protagonistas.
