Instead he contends that the globalization of today is just the latest in a series of globalizing movements in human history. Using the Uruk, Mississippian, and Wari civilizations as case studies, Jennings examines how the growth of the world's first great cities radically transformed their respective areas. The cities required unprecedented exchange networks, creating long-distance flows of ideas, people, and goods. These flows created cascades of interregional interaction that eroded local behavioral norms and social structures. New, hybrid cultures emerged within these globalized regions. Although these networks did not span the whole globe, people in these areas developed globalized cultures as they interacted with one another. Jennings explores how understanding globalization as a recurring event can help in the understanding of both the past and the present.Globalizations & the Ancient WorldCities and townsHistoryGlobalizationHistoryCities and townsHistory.GlobalizationHistory.303.48/2091732Jennings Justin885213UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910459099703321Globalizations and the ancient world2480594UNINA
