This relationship was not merely one of domination but one that was conceived as a kind of superiority; more specifically, as an 'advance' in historical time. Towards this end, the volume first analyses the emergence of this Atlantic modernity, then proceeds to compare aspects of contemporary Southern modernity, focusing on Brazil, Chile and South Africa. Finally, it explores the dynamics of contemporary modernity worldwide, looking at the relationship between past oppression and injustice and expectations for future freedom and justice. 410 0$aAnnual of European and global studies. 606 $aCivilization, Modern$y21st century 606 $aWorld history 615 0$aCivilization, Modern 615 0$aWorld history. 676 $a327.4 686 $aNK 7400$2rvk 700 $aWagner$b Peter, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0270351 702 $aWagner$b Peter$f1956 September 18- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153237803321 996 $aAfrican, American and European trajectories of modernity$92839331 997 $aUNINA
