Robert Marks makes an argument against the Eurocentric Myth called “the Rise of the West” in his book “The Origins of the Modern World: A Global and Environmental Narrative from the 15th to the 21st Century”. Using evidence from the historical events Marks provides in Chapters 1-5, counter the narrative “the Rise of the West” and its assumptions by providing at least one of each of the accidents, contingencies and conjunctures that occurred in separate parts of the world that ultimately lead to Europe’s Industrial Revolution. In your essay, also be sure to include an explanation for how the theory of The Biological Old Regime benefitted Indian Ocean Trade prior to the 15th century and how it became irrelevant to understanding modern society’s impact on the environment since the Europeans’ arrival on the Indian Ocean from the 15th century through the industrial revolution in the 18th century.
