Arguing that disruption and dissent are overlooked agents of historical change, it takes a global view of topics including political revolution, religious conversion, labour struggles and body politics. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 2nd edition includes two additional chapters on indigenous peoples, migration and environmental histories from below. With an updated preface, this enhanced text also includes additional images and case studies to grapple with themes that have more recently come to the fore, such as populism and the environment. Offering a study of these themes from 1750 to the present day, \u003ci\u003eWorld Histories from Below\u003c\/i\u003e refocuses our entire approach to teaching world history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAntoinette Burton \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of History at the University of Illinois, USA.
