摘要:This article focuses on how different historians have participated in the debates on the meaning, origins and context of the term globalization. As a concept, it has come to be distorted and even questioned, after having been abused both by academics and the public. Historians have adapted to the semantic changes of the term over time. Globalization has served to recover long-term perspectives as well as multi-causal and deterministic approaches. Nonetheless, some recent contributions have not only integrated globalization into the historical narrative, but have also helped outline its meaning and scope.
