Dr. Ina Baghdiantz McCabe presents a lecture based on the comparative essays in her latest book: Diaspora Entrepreneurial Networks: Four Centuries of History. National historiographies have masked the significance of trade diasporas and their entrepreneurial networks, despite the fact that they lay at the heart of the gradual integration of the world into one global system. Contrary to many a current belief, the integration of world economy, the so-called globalization of modern economic life, does not owe its present character solely to the actions (and omissions) of the colonialism and imperialism of prominent western or eastern powers. source
