Description
Eurocentrism challenges traditional views of world history, offering a radical reinterpretation that emphasizes the Arab Islamic world's crucial role. Written by renowned political economist Samir Amin, this thought-provoking essay critiques Eurocentric ideology and presents an alternative perspective. Amin addresses key concerns in his work, including the nature of scholastic metaphysics and the shortcomings of contemporary Islamic fundamentalism. The second edition features a new introduction and concluding chapter, strengthening the author's arguments. This book provides a compelling analysis of the ideological underpinnings of Eurocentrism and its implications for our understanding of world history.
