ISBN: 978-0-85345-786-2 (pbk) 152 pages Eurocentrism by Samir Amin In this original and provocative essay, Samir Amin, the author of a number of pathbreaking studies on the structure of the world economy, takes on one of the great "ideological deformations" of our time: Eurocentrism. Rejecting the dominant Eurocentric view of world history, which narrowly and incorrectly posits a progression from the Greek and Roman classical world to Christian feudalism and the European capitalist system, Amin presents a sweeping reinterpretation that emphasizes the crucial historical role played by the Arab-Islamic world.
