This seminal work of historical anthropology challenges conventional Eurocentric narratives by meticulously tracing the profound impact of European expansion on various non-Western societies. It argues that the concept of people without history is a construct, illustrating how these groups were actively shaped by global processes rather than existing in isolation. The book presents a compelling re-evaluation of world history, emphasizing the interconnectedness of cultures and economies across centuries. Through rigorous scholarship, it uncovers the complex dynamics of power, trade, and cultural exchange that defined the modern world. This academic text offers an essential perspective for understanding global inequalities and the construction of historical memory.
