Beschreibung:
<p>For at least a decade, design historians have been arguing that a global perspective on the discipline is essential. However, despite some initial efforts, the project of a global design history remains in its infancy. In response to the growing interest in globalization, this article considers the potential possibilities and problems in globalizing design history, albeit from a limited, Anglophone perspective. It begins in the first half by reviewing recent debates in historiography over world and global histories, so that we might more confidently position global approaches to design history. The second half of the article assembles initial attempts to globalize design history as well as themes and methods for further research, plotting potential themes and methods for globalizing design history, drawing upon existing scholarship and knowledge. Following historian Jerry H. Bentley, I am proposing design historians both 'globalize history and historicize globalization', in order to ensure the ongoing relevance of the discipline and engage with contemporary developments in other disciplines.</p>
