Description

This scholarly work examines Europe's complex interaction with Java, one of Asia's most established and distinctive civilisations. The book explores Europe's multifaceted strength through technological, political, and intellectual dimensions, whilst employing Wallerstein's world-systems perspective to provide crucial economic context. It traces the evolving role of the Dutch within the emerging global economic order from the 17th to 18th centuries, followed by a detailed history of the Dutch East-India Company's operations in Java and their significant political consequences. A comprehensive case study that illuminates how historical encounters between European and non-European societies shaped colonial trade, economic systems, and political structures during a transformative period in world history.
