Routledge English Economic Thought in the 17th Century Book

Explore the evolution of English economic thought during a transformative era. In the seventeenth century, England looked toward Holland as a major economic power to learn from and compete against. This scholarly work, part of the Routledge Studies in the History of Economics series, analyzes how English economic discourse developed in response to its Dutch rival. By examining how England's economy was shaped by the Dutch example, this book provides a deep look into the historical debates that defined the period. The text uses a wide range of primary and secondary sources to examine the development of economic ideas through specific historical lenses. This is an essential resource for students, historians, and researchers interested in the history of business and economic thought.
