In recent decades, transnational and global history have contributed to a more inclusive understanding of intellectual and cultural exchanges that profoundly challenged the ways in which we draw our mental maps. Covering the early modern and modern periods, Re-Mapping Centre and Periphery investigates the asymmetrical and multi-directional structure of such encounters within Europe as well as in a global context. Exploring subjects from the shores of the Russian Empire to nation-making in Latin America, the international team of contributors demonstrates how, as products of human agency, centre and periphery are conditioned by mutual dependencies; rather than representing absolute categories of analysis, they are subjective constructions determined by a constantly changing discursive context UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/25318/1/Re-Mapping-Centre-and-Periphery.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/25318/1/Re-Mapping-Centre-and-Periphery.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/25318/1/Re-Mapping-Centre-and-Periphery.pdf UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/26926 ER -
