About Global Ocean of Knowledge, 1660–1860: Globalization and Maritime Knowledge in the Atlantic World

This book looks to fill the ‘blue hole’ in Global History by studying the role of the oceans itself in the creation, development, reproduction and adaptation of knowledge across the Atlantic world. It shows how globalization and the growth of maritime knowledge served to reinforce one another, and demonstrates how and why maritime history should be put firmly at the heart of global history.Exploring the dynamics of globalization, knowledge-making and European expansion, Global Oceans in the Atlantic World takes a transnational approach and transgresses the traditional border between the early modern and modern periods. It focuses on three main periodisations, which correspond with major transformations in the globalization of the Atlantic World, and analyses how and to what extent globalization forces from above and from below influenced the development and exchange of knowledge. Davids distinguishes three forms of globalizing forces ‘from above’; imperial, commercial and religious, alongside self-organization, the globalizing force ‘from below’. Exploring how globalization advanced and its relationship with knowledge changed over time, this book bridges global, maritime, intellectual and economic history to reflect on the role of the oceans in making the world a more connected place
