An Introduction to Global History

---

Abstract.
Historians and social scientists know that nothing is completely new. For example, some scholars have
claimed to discern a major industrial movement in the fifteenth century, anticipating Carlyle's "industrial
revolution" (he helped coin the phrase and give it currency) by four centuries. Similarly, we can recognize
that there was a kind of globalization around the fifteenth century when the earth was first circumnavigated,
making us see it as spatially "whole." A comparable step was taken in the nineteenth century when time
zones were standardized, thus bringing the world's populations closer on the temporal plane. One task of
global history, then, will be to look back selectively and detect earlier signs of the global epoch now upon
us. Yet the conceptualization and practice of global history must start from our present position, where new
factors building on the old have given a different intensity and synchronicity to the process of globalization.
