More recent scholarship has rediscovered the dense entanglements with Central and Eastern Europe. Globalized Peripheries goes further by looking beyond slavery and American plantations. Contributions look at the trading practices and networks of merchants established in Central and Eastern Europe, investigate commodity flows between these regions and the Atlantic world, and explore the production of export commodities, two-way migration as well as financial ties. The volume uncovers new economic and financial connections between Prussia, the Habsburg Empire, Russia, as well as northern and western Germany with the Atlantic world. Its period coverage connects the end of the early modern world with the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBBook Series: People, Markets, Goods: Economies and Societies in HistoryGenre: Business & FinanceAuthor: Jutta WimmlerItem Weight: 438gRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
