Description

Traditionally, Germany has been considered a minor player in Pacific history: its presence there was more limited than that of other European nations, and whereas its European rivals established themselves as imperial forces beginning in the early modern era, Germany did not seriously pursue colonialism until the nineteenth century. Yet thanks to recent advances in the field emphasizing transoceanic networks and cultural encounters, it is now possible to develop a more nuanced understanding of the history of Germans in the Pacific. The studies gathered here offer fascinating research into German missionary, commercial, scientific, and imperial activity against the backdrop of the Pacific's overlapping cultural circuits and complex oceanic transits. Review "Given the numerous and diverse case studies that the individual chapters examine, it is to the credit of the volume's authors and editors that discrete themes are nonetheless clearly traceable throughout the work, the most interesting of these being the myriad and sometimes surprising ways in which Germany's status as a relative 'latecomer' to nationhood and imperial expansion actually served not as a liability but rather as an advantage for German agents and interests." - German History "This volume represents a bold intervention in Pacific and German historiographies, one that encourages us to rethink central concepts and assumptions. All of its contributions are interesting, well-substantiated, and conversant with transnational developments in both fields." - Rainer Buschmann, California State University Channel Islands About the Author Hartmut Berghoff is Director of the Institute of Economic and Social History at the University of Göttingen in Germany.
