Connecting the Nineteenth-Century World: The Telegraph and Globalization
Wenzlhuemer, Roland (Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat Heidelberg, Germany)

Roland Wenzlhuemer examines the links between this technological advance and the paths of globalization, combining cultural studies with social science methodology to explore both the network's structure and the agency of its users.
