Description

Beyond Empires explores the complexity of empire building from the point of view of self-organized cooperative networks, rather than from the point of view of the central state. Review "This is an impressive collection of essays that in the strength and coherence of its individual contributions succeeds in making a persuasive case. [...] this is a collection to be recommended for a wide audience. Unlike many volumes of this kind, it succeeds in advancing a clear argument and the editors are to be thanked for bringing together such an illuminating set of essays." - Adam Clulow, in: The International Journal of Maritime History, 29:4 (2017), pp. 927-929 " Beyond Empires succeeds in constructing a history of unofficial global networks and informal commercial activities in the early modern period. Cátia A.P. Antunes and Amelia Polónia argue that 'this informal empire that was brought to fruition by the individual choices of free agents and their networks as a reaction to state-imposed monopolies was ... a borderless, selforganized, often cross-cultural, multi-ethnic, pluri-national and stateless world that can only be characterized as global' (10). This collective volume offers fresh evidence on private entrepreneurs, merchant families, and mercantile" - Brian Sanberg, in: Itinerario, 41:3 (2017), pp. 636-638 [DOI:10.1017/S016511531700081X] "[This] volume contains numerous valuable and fascinating insights into the transnational and trans-imperial operations of informal commercial networks. However, while this empirical richness alone makes the volume a worthwhile read, by far its greatest achievement is the formulation of an analytical framework for the analysis of transnational networks." - Felicia Gottmann, in: Journal of World History, 29:4 (2018), pp. 574-584 [DOI: 10.1353/jwh.2018.0058] About the Author Catia Antunes, PhD (2004), Leiden University, is Associate Professor of Early Modern Economic and Social History at Leiden University, The Netherlands.
