Don’t expect to find a similar expression about the ascendancy of Europe ‘over Asia’ after 1500. To the contrary, any talk of ‘ascendancy’ by the West has been suppressed unless it is about imperialism and unfair trade advantages; England may have experience the ‘first’ industrial revolution but this can only be explained in terms of ‘Chinese, Indian, and African antecedents.’[77]

The Marxist orientation of the GHCC’s teaching and research is apparent in a booklet celebrating its fifth anniversary:

Focal points developed based on the specialism of Centre members, including the material culture of global connections, post- colonial theory, comparisons in technology, frameworks of local and regional histories, Chinese cities in global context, Caribbean and Spanish American trade and slavery, African decolonization, Indian Ocean diasporas, and South and East Asian health and medicine.[78]
