Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Inter-polity relations across early modern South East Asia (c. 1400-1800) were defined by spectacular growth of commercial networks, the marked increase of religious travel and ongoing imperial expansion. Diplomatic activity in this seminal period has traditionally been framed within a teleological model of state building and the adoption of International Law. This view, however, neglects both indigenous and colonial patterns of negotiations and exchange and often ignores the impact of diplomatic practices of the Sinosphere and the Indian Ocean World. The seminar introduces the latest research in new diplomatic history with its focus on gender, material culture, non-elite actors, symbolic language and performativity in order to re-think the conceptualization of foreign relations in South East Asia. Looking at specific examples from the Philippines, the Indonesian archipelago, the Malay Peninsula and Japan, it will discuss aspects of foreign relations such as tributary systems, maritime conflict management and border policies from the perspective of connected histories.
