Palgrave Macmillan’s Transnational History Series is an eminent and pioneering new series dedicated to transnational history, a field whose emergence is one of the most significant recent developments in historical studies today.

Written and edited by the world’s leading experts on transnational and global history, this series focuses upon the most important topics within this popular phenomena from the protest movements of the 1960’s to the ethnic and cultural identities of the Chinese in Britain, as well as global historical approaches to world order and politics.

Just some of the highlights in the series follow but watch this space for news of more titles in the coming months.

humanity jacketThe Idea of Humanity in a Global Era
Edited by Bruce Mazlish
Publishing February 2009

The result of a lifetime of research and contemplation on global phenomena, this book explores the idea of humanity in the modern age of globalization. Tracking the idea in the historical, philosophical, legal, and political realms, this is a concise and illuminating look at a concept that has defined the twentieth century. 

"If, in the course of this century, homo sapiens fail to identify himself/herself with all of humanity (rather than with political ethnicity or religious exclusivity), a global catastrophe is likely. Mazlish’s timely work is a signal that a profound redefinition of our collective identity is now urgently on the agenda."
--Zbigniew Brzezinski
