In recent years, historians across the world have become
increasingly interested in transnational and global approaches to
the past. However, the debates surrounding this new border-crossing
movement have remained limited in scope as theoretical exchanges on
the tasks, responsibilities and potentials of global history have
been largely confined to national or regional academic communities.
In this groundbreaking book, Dominic Sachsenmaier sets out to
redress this imbalance by offering a series of new perspectives on
the global and local flows, sociologies of knowledge and
hierarchies that are an intrinsic part of historical practice.
Taking the United States, Germany and China as his main case
studies, he reflects upon the character of different approaches to
global history as well as their social, political and cultural
contexts. He argues that this new global trend in historiography
needs to be supported by a corresponding increase in transnational
dialogue, cooperation and exchange.
