The exchange of ideas makes history as surely as the exchange of gunfire.
The Age of Globalization (previously published as
Under Three Flags) is an account of the unlikely connections that made up late nineteenth-century politics and culture. In particular, Benedict Anderson examines the links between militant anarchists in Europe and the Americas and the anti-imperialist uprisings in Cuba, China, and Japan. Told through the complex intellectual interactions of two great Filipino writers-the political novelist Jos� Rizal and the pioneering folklorist Isabelo de los Reyes-
The Age of Globalization is a brilliantly original work on how global networks shaped the nationalist movements of the time.
