<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The exchange of ideas makes history as surely as the exchange of gunfire. <i>The Age of Globalization </i>(previously published as Under Three Flags) is an account of the unlikely connections that made up late nineteenth-century politics and culture.

Told through the complex intellectual interactions of two great Filipino writers--the political novelist José Rizal and the pioneering folklorist Isabelo de los Reyes--<i>The Age of Globalization</i> is a brilliantly original work on how global networks shaped the nationalist movements of the time.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A curious yet riveting history ... both exciting and important.--<i>Guardian</i> <p/>Fiercely, movingly local, concentrated on a handful of remarkable men and fateful years, but also expansively global.--T.J. Clark, <i>London Review of Books</i> <p/>Fascinating insights into the global flow of anarchic and anti-colonial ideas.--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>A formidably erudite and beautifully illustrated study.--<i>Independent</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Benedict Anderson</b> is Aaron L.
