Locating the global : spaces networks and interactions from the seventeenth to the twentieth century This volume adds to the plurality of global histories by locating the global through its articulation and manifestation within particular localities. It accomplishes this by bringing together interlinked case studies that analyse various temporal and spatial dimensions of the global in the local and the interactions between the local and the global. The case studies apply a spatial approach to analyse how global questions of space movement networks borders and territory are worked out at a local level. The material draws on the Nordic countries Europe the Atlantic world Africa and Australia and ranges from the seventeenth to the twentieth century. It is further divided into sections that address topics such as the translocality of humans and goods local articulations of identities and globalities parliamentarism and anti colonialism the organization of knowledge and the construction of spaces of representation and memory Frontmatter On the Series Contents 1 Locating the Global: Articulations Encounters and Interactions 2 A Forgotten Emporium: Commercial Aspirations and Transnational Mercantile Networks in Seventeenth Century Glückstadt 3 Global Materials Contact Zones and Imitation: The Making of Metal Commodities in Eighteenth Century Sweden 4 Coffee and Coffee Surrogates in Sweden: A Local Global and Material History 5 Circulating Heterodox Medicine: Globalizing and Localizing Naturopathy in Interwar Finland 6 Stocktaking at Christiansborg: Metals and Slaves in the Danish Atlantic Trade at the Mid Eighteenth Century 7 Copper on the Move: A Commodity Chain between Sweden and France 1720–1790 8 Encountering Mid Eighteenth Century Morocco from Below: Slavery Race and Religion in two Scandinavian Captivity Narratives 9 Eurafrican Mobility and Encounters with Race ca. 1880–1920 10 Muslim Scholars Living in Three Worlds: West African Muslims and the Imposition of the European Colonial Order 11 Russia in the Global Parliamentary Moment 1905–1918: Between a Subaltern Empire and an Empire of Subalterns 12 A Neutral Place Anti Colonialism Peace and Revolution in Stockholm 1917 13 Ethiopia in Swedish Press in the Run up to the Italo Ethiopian War 1935 36 14 Cartographic Histories of the Western Territorialization of Northern Australia 1840s–1900s: Global Circuits of Knowledge and the Mapmakers’ Craft 15 National History and Big History: Väinö Auer the Finnish Nationalist and the Global Environmentalist 16 Global Hubs on the Move: Nineteenth Century World’s Fairs as Spaces of Imagining the World 17 Visualizing Sweden at the 1937 World Fair in Paris 18 National Museums and the Wider World: The Exclusion of Non Western Collections at the National Museum of Finland 19 A Contested Global Memory Space: The Establishment of the National Museum of Ghana List of Contributors Index
