Europe and the Maritime World: A Twentieth-Century History offers a
new framework for understanding globalization over the past
century. Through a detailed analysis of ports, shipping, and
trading companies whose networks spanned the world, Michael B.
Miller shows how a European maritime infrastructure made modern
production and consumer societies possible. He argues that the
combination of overseas connections and close ties to home ports
contributed to globalization. Miller also explains how the ability
to manage merchant shipping's complex logistics was central to the
outcome of both world wars. He chronicles transformations in
hierarchies, culture, identities, and port city space, all of which
produced a new and different maritime world by the end of the
century.
