Transnational turn-over? New trends in the concept of world/ European history and their application at the history of technology studies

History based largely on artificial interpretations from a unified national point of view has become the target of increasingly systematic criticism. The limitations of a dominant national perspective surfaced in discussions of processes that are not detectable at the level of national state or that are overshadowed by hegemonic national discourse. The history of technology clearly belongs to the historical sub-disciplines in which, to certain degree, a transnational perspective is inherent by definition.
