'Zarakol's Before the West successfully challenges Eurocentrism not by running into its opposite, Sinocentrism, but by examining Asia and its interconnectedness to the rest of Eurasia. Against Sinocentric works that treat Mongols as 'barbarians', the author puts the Mongol empire at the center of analysis and underscores the high degree of centralization in the Chinggisid sovereignty model. Zarakol vividly demonstrates how 'Asia was first made whole' by Genghis Khan's world conquest. She makes the provocative argument that the supposedly Chinese Ming emperors who overthrew the Mongol Yuan dynasty were in fact 'Chinggisid sovereigns', along with the contemporary Timurids in West Asia. This book is a gem in the genre of Global IR and macro-historical comparison.' Victoria Hui, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Notre Dame
