Seminar
Africa in Global History: Potentials, Limits, and Frictions
Sarah Katherine Bellows-Blakely
Kommentar
This discussion-based seminar interrogates the application of global history methodologies to the study of Africa’s past. Through a series of case studies from pre-colonial Africa to the present, the class will look at how different scholars have used global historical approaches to better understand the relationships between people, ideas, goods, and structural inequalities on the continent and off of it. At the same time, we will read critiques of global history as a set of methodologies, particularly as they apply to the history of Africa and other parts of the world that continue to be marginalized in academic knowledge production in the North Atlantic. In addition to asking how a global approach to African history might reframe what we know of the continent and its past, we will also ask how global African history can reframe what we know about various regions, from Western Europe to South Asia and the Caribbean, in the past and present.
