The paper reviews the rise and utility of World Systems Theory in archaeology, with particular reference to Europe and the Bronze Age. After a consideration of its origins in the 1970s and 1980s, the main aspects of the theory are discussed. The evidence that shows that the Bronze Age world was highly interconnected is presented, and the implications of a World Systems view of the period considered. In an attempt to work towards a new narrative of the European Bronze Age, a brief discussion of network methods is introduced, since these offer an alternative, ‘bottom-up’, approach to the period which, it is argued, is more appropriate to the data than the World Systems approach.

Dans cet article on examine la montée et l'utilité du concept du système-monde en archéologie, plus particulièrement en ce qui concerne l'Europe et l'Âge du Bronze. Après avoir analysé ses origines dans les années 1970 et 1980, on étudie les principaux aspects de cette théorie et on présente les éléments de preuve démontrant que l'Âge du Bronze était fortement interrelié. Enfin sont examinées les implications d'une approche de cette période qui se base sur le concept du système-monde. Afin d'établir une nouvelle vision de l'Âge du Bronze en Europe, une brève explication de la manière de fonctionnement des réseaux s'impose, car ces méthodes proposent une approche alternative ‘ascendante’ de la période qui semble plus appropriée aux données que le concept du système-monde.

Zusammenfassung

Zusammenfassung

Dieser Beitrag betrachtet die Entwicklung und Anwendung der Weltsystem-Theorie in der Archäologie unter besonderer Berücksichtigung Europas und der Bronzezeit. Nach einer Erörterung ihrer Ursprünge in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren werden die wichtigsten Aspekte dieser Theorie diskutiert. Es werden weiterhin die Indizien, dass die bronzezeitliche Welt intensiv vernetzt war, dargelegt sowie die Auswirkungen einer Weltsystem-Sicht der Zeitepoche behandelt. Um der Geschichtsschreibung der europäischen Bronzezeit neue Impulse zu vermitteln, wird eine kurze Diskussion von Netzwerkmethoden angeschlossen, da diese einen alternativen Bottom-Up-Ansatz zu dieser Periode bieten, der, wie hier ausgeführt wird, den Daten angemessener ist als die Methodik der Weltsystem-Theorie.
