History after the three worlds : post-Eurocentric historiographies
Arif Dirlik (Editor), Vinay Bahl (Editor), Peter Gran (Editor)
History as a discipline faces a crisis of identity as Eurocentrism fades in a world where globalized visions compete to explain historical processes. Facing the challenge, this work explores the state of historical analysis in various world regions and appraises what defines historical knowledge.
