This course approaches the idea and practice of World History through the lens of commodities and consumption. Over the course of the semester it will consider the last 1000 years of world history by examining the global production, circulation, and consumption of goods. In addition to its focus on the role of commodities in shaping local and global histories, the class will focus on several central themes: mass migrations of people; colonialism and imperialism; the global formation of capitalist economies and industrialization; the emergence of modern states; nationalism; and the rise of consumer societies.
