- Abstract
The book "In Asian Waters. Oceanic Worlds from Yemen to Yokohama" by Eric Tagliacozzo discusses the history of the oceanic worlds of Asia. The book emphasizes the interconnected history and mutual dependencies of societies in the Indian Ocean. It examines the connections between different regions, the political relationships between powerful states and informal powers, the trade of goods and ideas, the role of religion, and the significance of port cities. The book demonstrates the strong interconnectedness of maritime worlds and calls for a non-Eurocentric perspective on the history of Asia.
