Summary

There has been a sea change in the way history has been taught and written about during the last twenty years or so, apparent in the frequency with which the words 'global' and 'transnational' have come to be used in the titles of books and articles. Historians worldwide have become interested and promoted, global and transnational perspectives in the study of modern history. Akira Iriye, the world authority on transnational history, examines exactly what global history and transnational history entail, how they differ from each other, and how both of them are distinguishable from the more traditional 'world history,' 'international history,' and nation-centric and region-specific histories.

Author Biography

AKIRA IRIYE is Charles Warren Research Professor of American History, Harvard University, USA and a past president of the American Historical Association.
