项目摘要

In this study we tried to delineate the regional differences of maritime worlds. Earlier, we proposed the concept of a Southeast Asian maritime world, and presented concrete data to support it. It is a sea containing the islands covered by the tropical rain forest. Historically, it is the region which has been shipping tropical forest products. In the process of history was born a loosely structured society. And even now, it is open to the world culturally as well economically.With these characteristics of the Southeast Asian maritime world as a background, we have looked into European maritime worlds, especially the Mediterranean area. Twelve persons did a field research in Europe. The first group classified the maritime worlds from the viewpoint of ecological history ; the second compared the eastern and western parts of the Mediterranean Sea ; the third investigated maritime networks ; the forth studied the characteristics of maritime world from the viewpoint of agriculture ; the fifth did a documentation study on maritime trade history ; the sixth tried to characterize modernization, especially economic development, from the viewpoint of Southeast Asian experience ; and the last group studied capital cities and the characteristics of their power structure.Tentatively, we can say that natural forces tend to overweight human forces in the Southeast Asian maritime world. In contrast, the Mediterranean world is the birthplace of maritime civilization as well as the place of incessant human interactions. People there intermingled, and through this process, created a powerful culture, which overflowed into other areas. The Baltic and North seas were explored first by the vigorous Normans, and their descendants, together with the successors of Mediterranean civilization, created a modern world.

在这项研究中，我们试图描述海洋世界的区域差异。此前，我们提出了东南亚海洋世界的概念，并提出了具体数据以支持它。它是一个包含热带雨林覆盖的岛屿的海洋。从历史上看，这是一直在运输热带森林产品的地区。在历史过程中，一个松散的社会诞生了。即使是现在，它在经济上也向世界开放。在东南亚海事世界的这些特征作为背景下，我们研究了欧洲海洋世界，尤其是地中海地区。十二个人在欧洲进行了现场研究。第一组从生态史的角度从海上世界分类。第二个比较了地中海的东部和西部。第三个研究了海上网络；从农业的角度来研究海洋世界的特征。第五对海事贸易历史进行了文档研究；从东南亚经验的角度来看，第六次试图表征现代化，尤其是经济发展。最后一个小组研究了资本城市及其权力结构的特征。我们可以说，自然力量倾向于超重的人类力量在东南亚海事世界中。相比之下，地中海世界是海洋文明的发源地，也是人类不断互动的地方。那里的人们混合在一起，通过这一过程创造了一种强大的文化，该文化溢出到其他领域。波罗的海和北部的海洋首先是由有力的诺曼人探索的，他们的后代以及地中海文明的继任者创造了一个现代世界。
