The Eastern Origins of Western Civilisation
John M. Hobson, "The Eastern Origins of Western Civilisation"
Publisher: Cambridge University Press | PDF | 2004 | ISBN 0521838355 | 393 pages | 9.9 Mb
John Hobson challenges the ethnocentric bias of mainstream accounts of the "Rise of the West" that assume that Europeans have pioneered their own development, and that the East has been a passive by-stander. Describing the rise of what he calls the "Oriental West", Hobson argues that Europe first assimilated many Eastern inventions, and then appropriated Eastern resources through imperialism. Hobson's book thus propels the hitherto marginalized Eastern peoples to the forefront of the story of progressive world history.
