The period of French occupation fostered a growing belief in the Maghreb's gradual environmental degradation and a desire to \"restore\" its inherent fertility. The late-nineteenth century plan to create an artificial inland sea represents a grandiose, transformative vision of French colonialism. Influenced by Saint-Simonianism, the project's advocates aimed to use modern technology to fulfill a utopian dream of \"reclaiming\" the Sahara. Led by Captain François-Élie Roudaire, the project aimed to channel waters from the Mediterranean into saline depressions in the Tunisian and Algerian Sahara. This sea, it was hoped, would transform the northern Sahara into a milder and more hospitable environment. Although it garnered the support of Ferdinand de Lesseps and other notable figures, the project fell apart by the mid-1880s. While the vision of a vast inland Saharan sea occasionally resurfaced through the twentieth century, it never manifested in any genuine construction attempts. The Sahara Sea, however, characterizes aspects of the French colonial enterprise that would manifest in other social and technological developments throughout the colonial and postcolonial periods.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"33 1","pages":"527 - 556"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139229168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After initial hopes for peace and international justice, however, soon followed disillusionment about a post-war order that left little room for the aspirations of colonized people and those nations not amongst the winners of the new geopolitical order. The present article analyses interwar pacifism as a polycentric discourse, moving beyond earlier Anglo-American and European-centered approaches. It introduces the World Conference for International Peace through Religion, an initiative by the American Church Peace Union, focusing on the (inter)actions of its American, German, Indian, and Japanese members. The World Conference set out to tackle world peace from a perspective outside of formal politics and international relations in hopes that religion might succeed where politicians and secular activists had failed. In the end, however, the organization never achieved its ambitious goals due to internal contradictions, differing visions of peace and international (or transnational) justice, and structural problems like the persisting connections of its f(o)unders to the American Protestant missionary milieu.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"37 1","pages":"585 - 615"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139233663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oyabe’s book reveals how in the interwar period the imagined medieval past and historical personalities were mobilized in the Japanese imperial expansion into the Mongolian lands. This article demonstrates how in the post–World War I years Japanese imperial boosters formulated a new rhetoric of the shared historical, cultural, political, and racial heritage with the Mongols, which ultimately justified the Japanese military plans to bring the Mongolian lands and its people, formally divided between the Qing and Romanov empires, under imperial Japan’s control.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"34 1","pages":"399 - 432"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47146852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These authors extracted broad lessons from Black America and did not focus exclusively on African American bondage. While several studies have shown how African Americans in the twentieth century first looked to the Empire of Japan and then the People’s Republic of China as sources of inspiration, this article reveals a broader story of exchange. By reversing the aforementioned flow of information and ideas back across the Pacific, this article highlights how Black America, beleaguered as it may have been, also served as an object of emulation.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"34 1","pages":"463 - 490"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44591327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Western contemporaries wrote off these beliefs as primitive, and later scholars minimized their importance, arguing that colonial authorities exaggerated invulnerability to obscure economic grievances. To date, invulnerability has gained attention for its role in millenarianism. Adopting a case study approach Michael Adas argued that groups that lost power supported prophetic movements. However, the frequency of invulnerability shows the value of a geographic approach. This article charts locations and timing of invulnerability practices to map out zones of invulnerability. This broader approach helps to identify causes for the proliferation of invulnerability. Invulnerability did not create a unified or proto-nationalist response to rapid imperial expansion and settler societies, but invulnerability reflected the shock and disorientation of the period on a global scale.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"34 1","pages":"369 - 397"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49548399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many historiographical theories, of the kind Lyotard termed metarécits, “metanarratives,” have attempted to explain this phenomenon. Recently, compelling evidence has emerged that other civilizations also practiced the technique, most notably China. This article brings together existing and new evidence that volley fire with firearms was developed and practiced in China long before it appeared in Europe and challenges several of the grand narratives of European exceptionalism. This new evidence shows that the volley fire technique arose in China primarily as a reaction to domestic and foreign (semi-)nomadic cavalry threats, belying geographically deterministic accounts, which suggest that sophisticated infantry tactics with firearms would not arise in states bordering the steppe. This article will also challenge the claim that volley fire in Europe benefitted from its emergence in a competitive system of states undergoing a tradition-challenging Renaissance. I call for a reconsideration of the innovative potential of Eurasian land empires bordering the steppe, and stress the importance of studying political contingencies and cultures of innovation in shaping world history.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"34 1","pages":"329 - 368"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46383990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
