Empires of the Weak: The Real Story of European Expansion and the Creation of the New World Order
by Sharman, Jason
|
|
Arguing that Europeans had no general military superiority in the early modern era, J. C. Sharman shows that European expansion from the late 15th to the late 18th centuries is better explained instead by deference to strong Asian and African polities, disease in the Americas, and maritime supremacy earned by default because local land-oriented polities were largely indifferent to war and trade at sea. | |
