From the Netherlands to the Ottoman Empire, to Japan and India,
this groundbreaking volume confronts the complex and diverse
problem of the formation of fiscal states in Eurasia between 1500
and 1914. This series of country case studies from leading economic
historians reveals that distinctive features of the fiscal state
appeared across the region at different moments in time as a result
of multiple independent but often interacting stimuli such as
internal competition over resources, European expansion,
international trade, globalisation and war. The essays offer a
comparative framework for re-examining the causes of economic
development across this period and show, for instance, the central
role that the more effective fiscal systems of Europe during the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries played in the divergence of
east and west as well as the very different paths to modernisation
taken across the world.
