Abstract

World history has a value in breaking down our ethnocentrism. The up-to-date general histories mention China in one or two chapters, whereas they spend all the rest of their time on Europe. Is this because only Europe has changed, only Europe has had things happen? Anyone who has studied the history of China will tell you this is not true. The history of Chinese culture is as important, from an international point of view, to modern world humanity as is the history of Europe. Yet when we read “world history” we read chiefly of Europe.
