Philippe Beaujard's "The Indian Ocean: A Global History from the Earliest States to 1500 CE" offers a comprehensive global history of the Indian Ocean world, from state formations to 1500 CE, highlighting Asia and Africa's dominance, trans-regional division of labor, and Afro-Eurasian world economy.

This first comprehensive history of the ancient world reassesses Europe's place in history, focusing on the Indian Ocean and its role in pre-modern globalization. Philippe Beaujard presents an ambitious and comprehensive global history of the Indian Ocean world, from the earliest state formations to 1500 CE. Supported by a wealth of empirical data, full-color maps, plates, and figures, he shows how Asia and Africa dominated the economic and cultural landscape and the flow of ideas in the pre-modern world. This led to a trans-regional division of labor and an Afro-Eurasian world economy. Beaujard questions the origins of capitalism and hints at how this world-system may evolve in the future. The result is a reorientation of world history, taking the Indian Ocean, rather than Europe, as the point of departure.
Volume I provides in-depth coverage of the period from the fourth millennium BCE to the sixth century CE.
