China and East Africa: Ancient Ties, Contemporary Flows - Paperback

by Chapurukha M. Kusimba (Editor), Tiequan Zhu (Editor), Purity Wakabari Kiura (Editor)

This book engages globalization from an archaeological and long-term perspective by using the case study of the historical interaction between China and East Africa. It raises questions of whether the greater connectivity that has emerged from globalization will lead to homogenization of culture, or the creation of a monoculture.
