Description

Explore a new perspective on global economic history with Across the Borders: Financing the World's Railways in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries. Published by Routledge as part of the Modern Economic and Social History series, this book moves beyond narrow economic studies to offer a wide-ranging, transnational view of railway history. While previous research often limited itself to comparing railway investments with other sectors within individual economies, this work provides the first extensive historical investigation into the worldwide system of railway financing. It examines how governments, entrepreneurs, and financiers in Europe managed the complex challenges of funding massive infrastructure projects across different borders. This book serves as a breakthrough for students and historians, offering fundamental insights into how capital moved globally to build the rail networks that shaped the modern world. It is an essential resource for anyone studying the intersection of finance, government policy, and global economic development during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
