Description

Commodity Trading, Globalization and the Colonial World offers a fresh perspective on nineteenth and twentieth century economic globalization, moving beyond conventional supply-and-demand explanations to examine the role of global trading firms in shaping international markets. Centred on the Swiss merchant house Volkart Bros., one of the era's most significant trading operations, this Routledge volume explores how individual actors conducted complex economic transactions across multicultural business environments. The book challenges traditional narratives of globalisation by highlighting the agency and strategic decisions of trading companies that connected colonial regions, European markets, and emerging economies. Part of the Routledge International Studies in Business History series, it combines rigorous historical analysis with insights relevant to understanding modern global commerce and the foundations of contemporary trade networks.

Key Features

Examines the Swiss merchant house Volkart Bros. as a case study of global trading practices during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Reframes economic globalisation beyond supply-and-demand models to highlight the role of trading firms in connecting multicultural business worlds.

Part of the Routledge International Studies in Business History series, offering scholarly depth for business historians and economists.

Explores the intersection of commodity trading, colonialism, and the development of international market structures.
