But the relevance of cities is nothing but new. They were essential for culture and civilization worldwide, they allowed a centralization of power and knowledge and they were crucial for the division of labor and for the organization of mass demand. Further, as places of intense and continuous interactions, cities are the locations par excellence for global history to take place. Thus, there is a need to study the history of cities in connection with the history of globalization from this perspective. This book is dedicated to contribute to the still underdeveloped but growing literature connecting the history of cities worldwide and their relation to global processes. The authors do so from various disciplinary backgrounds and by referring to different times and places. We visit ancient Alexandria, nineteenth century Zanzibar, and modern-day Sa?o Paolo, among others, and we view these cities not only in their globality, but also through their heritage, their economic relevance, their architecture, or financial flows connecting them. Further, the book also contains systematic considerations about "global city", especially the general role of cities in development, cities in global history teaching, and cities' relationships to global commodity chains. 330 $aDie Welt ist heute viel weniger ein globales Dorf als eine globale Stadt, eine "global city". Dieses weltumspannende Netzwerk multidimensionaler urbaner Ra?ume der Verdichtung steht dabei in einem wechselseitigen Verha?ltnis zu Globalisierung: es gestaltet sie zugleich, wie sie auch durch sie besta?ndig mitgestaltet wird. Aber die Bedeutung von Sta?dten ist alles andere als neu. Weltweit waren sie entscheidend fu?r Kultur und Zivilisation, sie erlaubten eine Zentralisierung von Macht und Wissen und sie waren zentral fu?r die Arbeitsteilung und die Organisation der Massennachfrage. Als Pla?tze der anhaltenden Interaktion waren und sind Sta?dte ausserdem prototypische Orte, an denen sich Globalgeschichte ereignet. Daher ist es no?tig, die Geschichte von Sta?dten in Zusammenhang mit der Geschichte der Globalisierung zu erza?hlen. Dieses Buch untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen der Geschichte von Sta?dten weltweit und ihre Beziehung zu globalen Prozessen. Die AutorInnen betrachten u.a. das antike Alexandria, Zanzibar im 19. Jahrhundert und das heutige Sa?o Paolo nicht nur in ihrer Globalita?t, sondern auch durch ihr kulturelles Erbe, ihre wirtschaftliche Bedeutung, ihre Architektur oder durch Finanzflu?sse zwischen ihnen. Zudem entha?lt das Buch systematische Beitra?ge zur "globalen Stadt", insbesondere zur Rolle von Sta?dten fu?r die Entwicklung, den Stellenwert von Sta?dten im Globalgeschichteunterricht und ihre Beziehung zu globalen Gu?terketten. 410 0$aEdited volume series. 517 1 $aGlobalisation and the city 606 $aCities and towns 606 $aGlobalization 610 $aculture 610 $aglobalization 610 $aglobal history 610 $aeconomy 615 0$aCities and towns. 615 0$aGlobalization. 676 $a307.76 700 $aAndreas Exenberger$b Philipp Strobl, Günter Bischof, James Mokhiber (dir.)$4auth$01356460 702 $aExenberger$b Andreas$f1972-, 702 $aStrobl$b Philipp$g(Philipp Luis), 702 $aBischof$b Günter$f1953-, 702 $aMokhiber$b James 712 12$aConference in World History$f(2011 :$eInnsbruck, Austria) 801 0$bNyNyMAR 801 1$bNyNyMAR 801 2$bUkMaJRU 801 2$bAuAdUSA 912 $a9910141845003321 996 $aGlobalization and the city$93361029 997 $aUNINA
