Columbia StudieS in international and Global HiStory
The idea of “globalization” has become a commonplace, but we
lack good histories that can explain the transnational and global
processes that have shaped the contemporary world. Columbia
Studies in International and Global History will encourage seri-
ous scholarship on international and global history with an eye
to explaining the origins of the contemporary era. Grounded in
empirical research, the titles in the series will also transcend the
usual area boundaries and will address questions of how history
can help us understand contemporary problems, including poverty,
inequality, power, political violence, and accountability beyond the
nation-state.
