Maritime History as Global History? The Methodological Challenges and a Future Research Agenda
Maritime History as Global History? The Methodological Challenges and a Future Research Agenda
This chapter summarises and concludes the findings of the volume. It offers a short analysis of recent developments in maritime historiography, followed by the same analysis for global historiography. It reiterates the question at the heart of the volume, is maritime history global? It also addresses the presence of empire in maritime and global history, and the relationship to economic history. It attempts to discern how far back global history can be traced, and finds that globalisation began with the founding of Manila in the sixteenth century, and is inextricably linked to maritime history.
Keywords: Eurocentrism, Maritime Historiography, Global Historiography, Manila
