Answer:

World history encompasses a history that is not necessarily completely interconnected through globalization, while global history examines this specific history of interconnectivity. ... Furthermore, the fluid nature of what world and global histories mean ensures a number of disagreements with these definitions.

Answer:

Assuming you mean "American History V World History"

American History tends to focus on the history of the United States, beginning largely with the colonial era and tracking forwards towards the present. It's largely a national history. World History, on the other hand, is far more encompassing, both geographically as well as temporally.

Assuming you mean "Global History V World History"

World history encompasses a history that is not necessarily completely interconnected through globalization, while global history examines this specific history of inter-connectivity. World History examines the individual histories of different locations around the world, whereas Global History examines how those locations are connected.
