Description

Explore the deep history of global economic connections in The World System: Five Hundred Years or Five Thousand? Published by Routledge, this academic work challenges traditional timelines regarding how the world became economically linked. While Immanuel Wallerstein suggests the world system began in the early modern period, scholars Andre Gunder Frank and Barry K. Gills propose a much older history reaching back up to 5,000 years. This book brings together leading academics to debate the origins of global economic structures. It features contributions from renowned thinkers, including William H. McNeill and Immanuel Wallerstein himself. By examining these different perspectives, readers gain a better understanding of the long-term economic interconnections that have shaped our modern world. This text is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in business and economic history, offering a rigorous look at the debate surrounding the true age of the global economic system.
