SeminarSummary: Jawaharlal Nehru imagined the history of India as a multilayered palimpsest, overwritten and adapted in many ways, but with the previous traces still visible, probably hidden but not erased. The metaphor convincingly grasps the function (and attractiveness) of global history, which started as a post-cold war project in the 1990s and since then has reached the many departments of history around the world as a considerable scholarly contribution to the understanding of the 21st century’s dense (and ambivalent) connectivities. – Reproduced
