Beginning in the late 15th century, a few European states expanded their commercial reach in the Americas and Asia and commenced a political struggle in regions far away from Europe. Gradually, other Western powers joined the race for overseas possessions, until by the late nineteenth century most of the Global South was governed by the West. There were many non-Western empires in the world during these centuries, however, and the resulting conflicts marked the entire course of modern history. This subject explains the encounters between the West and the Rest, and examines empires in Western Europe, Asia, the Americas, and the Middle East. The subject also looks at ways in which imperialism continues to shape the world. Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.
