Description

Explore the origins of the first truly global economy in this comprehensive work of world history. Published by Routledge, this book examines the complex development of merchant capital, colonialism, and world trade between 1400 and 1825. It provides a deep look into how a Europe-centered economic system formed the foundation for the modern world system we recognize today. Professor Smith investigates the significant progress made by various cultures across the globe, noting that many of these societies achieved levels of development that once exceeded those found in Europe. The text moves beyond simple explanations of traditionalism to probe why certain societies struggled to maintain their initial economic momentum. This study offers a detailed perspective on the historical shifts that shaped international trade and global economic structures during this transformative era.
