Production, Distribution Frame Introduction | World History Project

We already know that humans live in communities and share things and ideas across networks. There is another important frame to help you understand human history. In this frame, we look at how we make things and share, sell, or trade them within our communities and across networks. The earth and our universe provided the raw materials. But across history, humans have become increasingly sophisticated in how we produce and distribute goods and tools. But this increasing sophistication has caused some problems that we deal with today. Exploring these changes and problems can orient us to the present and help prepare us for the future.
