Mapping, Connectivity, and the Making of European Empires
Rowman & Littlefield (Verlag)
978-1-5381-4639-2 (ISBN)
Rehearsing mapping’s past and its multifarious relations with European imperial orders is not merely an historical exercise to contribute to a global history of cartography. What binds the several interventions is rather an awareness that looking at a particular moment of the past with composite methodologies and interdisciplinary gazes may harbour potential discoveries on the context-embedded relations between mapping, connectivity, and European empire to which we are not yet attuned. By exploring the imaginaries of the world in the mapping of Western modern empires, the book also links to the burgeoning literature on the history of international relations and empire. The emphasis on empires serves here as an important corrigendum for IR’s state centrism and Eurocentrism and contributes to further erode the myth of Westphalia.
Luis Lobo-Guerrero is Professor of History and Theory of International Relations at the University of Groningen. Laura Lo Presti is Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Padova. Filipe dos Reis is Assistant Professor of Geopolitics and Connectivity at the University of Groningen.
