It came together in the waning decades of the twentieth century, in part, as a reaction to the specialization of scholarship and education that had taken hold around the world. While this specialization had great results, it created barriers that stood in contrast to a growing unity among our global communities. These barriers were increasingly awkward to bridge, and, thus, Big History emerged as a successful new framework. %C RUS %G en %9 Sammelwerksbeitrag %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
