The Making of a Global World
This chapter of the NCERT Class 10 India and the Contemporary World II textbook, Chapter 3, shows how trade, migration and disease linked distant societies long before the modern age. It follows the silk routes, the spread of crops and cattle disease such as rinderpest, indentured labour from India, and the Great Depression of 1929. It then explains post war reconstruction, the Bretton Woods institutions, the rise of multinational companies, and how these flows of goods, labour and capital created an interconnected global economy.
