Global history and actor-network theory are currently among the most discussed theoretical frameworks in the social sciences - however, they have yet to be put together. This volume closes that gap and examines the compatibility of global history views and the perspectives of actor-network theory. The contributions show how the theoretical assumptions and methodical approaches of Bruno Latour, the most prominent advocate of agent-network theory, can contribute to the renewal of global history: no longer asking for a supposedly almighty power called globalization, but for concrete people, things, and techniques which can create extensive networks. This also serves to investigate which actors globalized which phenomenon at which time.
