Explanation:
The silk road whose name was derived from the popular trade in silk, was a connection of trade routes which linked the east to the west. It was important to the cultural, political, economic and religious communications between these regions in the 18th century. Some of the places connected were south Asia, southeast Asia, east Asia, east Africa, Persia and southern Europe. The silk road was important to the development of these regions.
The common hazards the traders of the silk road faced were bandits. Bandits were a threat as expensive products like gold were transported through these roads. Another hazard was the difficult terrain and mountains the caravans had to navigate. Next was the deserts and sandstorms.
To overcome the bandits challenge, the traders traveled with their own defense forces. Traders wore thick coverings to protect from the sandstorms.

a) one argument that barton makes in the passage is that historians cannot recreate a new history just because they don't want britain or europe being in the center of world history, and such acts will only vandalize history. The passage talked about 'de-center' Europe from the world history will present many problems, and this meant that we should learn the right history and we shouldn't focusing on making history what we like.
b) one cultural or economic development in the late 20th century that explain the "impending decline of the west" was the decolonization events, which led to many European countries to become less powerful since they cannot get as much money from their colonies anymore like they used to. which led to many new nations with new cultures forming, not the blind triumphalism of the old modernization theory of inevitable progress towards westernization.
c) one cultural or economic change in the late 20th century that historians who supported the process of de-centering world history would cite as a limitation was the soviet union's success in the middle east, which supported barton's argument in the 2nd paragraph where "westernization is inevitable".
