The Force of Comparison

A New Perspective on Modern European History and the Contemporary World

Beschreibung

Drawing on a range of multidisciplinary perspectives, this volume investigates the concepts and practices of comparison from the early modern period to the present. Each contribution demonstrates how comparison has helped to drive the seemingly irresistible dynamism of the modern world, with a particular focus on what comparison looks like "in action."
