It has been an agent of colonial oppression but also of indigenous resistance, a site of loss, dispersal and enforced migration but also of new forms of solidarity and affective kinship. Sea Changes re-evaluates the view that history happens mainly on dry land and makes the case for a creative reinterpretation of the role of the sea: not merely as a passage from one country to the next, but a historical site deserving close study.Ocean and civilizationOceanHistoryOcean travelOcean and civilization.OceanHistory.Ocean travel.910.45Klein Bernhard1963-1868293Mackenthun Gesa1959-240962MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910954570303321Sea changes4495736UNINA
