by Charles Carter, Terry Morris
Paperback / softback
Description
The World Transformed: Modern Civilization Since 1648 is an innovative text that combines world history and western civilization.
Rather than approaching history and civilization as a purely chronological study, the book considers the differing approaches to life and politics that prevailed at various times and in various places. Beginning with the rise of the sovereign state, the twelve chapters explore intellectual transformation in 17th and 18th Century Europe, globalization and war in the early modern period, traditional East Asian states, Muslim empires, and the emergence of the nation-state.
Students also learn about political transformation and modernizing forces in the 19th Century, the modernization of warfare, and challenges to western modernity and the developing world. Helping students what it actually means to be a part of modern civilization and have a modern world view, The World Transformed is well-suited to classes in world history, western or modern civilization, and the history of globalization.
