AB - The purpose of this article is to examine A. G. Frank’s criticism of eurocentrism in his Reorient. This economic historian says that Asia has been the center of the World Economy since the bronze age until around the end of 18th century, whereas Europe has been a poor and isolated province during this long period. But, according to him, eurocentrist scholars like Karl Marx, Max Weber, Talcott Parsons, Walt Whitman Rostow has ignore the historic fact, the asian hegemony during the pre-modern age.
This article criticized the opinion of A. G. Frank with the help of Fernand Braudel and K. N. Chaudhuri. Fernand Braudel is considered to be eurocentric, but from our viewpoint, is not, while K. N. Chaudhuri was praised as a non-eurocentrist scholar in Reorient. We examined A. G. Frank’s criticism of Fernand Braudel and K. N. Chaudhuri, and his historical perspective making this confrontation, supporting his criticism of eurocentrism.
A. G. Frank himself did not surpass the eurocentrism in spite of his criticism in Reorient. We considered him as a anti-eurocentric eurocentrist according to the expression of Immanuel Wallerstein. A. G. Frank criticizes the eurocentrism of eminent scholars and explains global economy in the asian age, but his historical perspective is merely the asiancentrism, a reversed image of the eurocentrism. We should deconstruct, to surpass the eurocentrism, the structure of opposition and the concepts of Europe and Asia, because they are the imaginaries made by the eurocentrism.
