Globalization and the challenge to historical analysis -- Emerging patterns of contact, 1200 BCE-1000 CE : a preparatory phase -- 1000 CE as turning point : the birth of globalization? -- 1500 As turning point : the birth of globalization? -- The 1850's as turning point : the birth of globalization? -- Globalization since the 1940's : a new global history? -- Conclusion : the historical perspective.
'Globalization in World History' examines major changes in global interactions from 1000 CE onward, and defines four major turning points that have accelerated the process of globalization. It argues that although the term is a relatively new one, the process of globalization has roots much further back in time.
