The Routledge Handbook of Global Economic History documents and
interprets the development of economic history as a global
discipline from the later nineteenth century to the present day.
Exploring the normative and relativistic nature of different
schools and traditions of thought, this handbook not only examines
current paradigmatic western approaches, but also those conceived
in less open societies and in varied economic, political and
cultural contexts. In doing so, this book clears the way for
greater critical understanding and a more genuinely global approach
to economic history. This handbook brings together leading
international contributors in order to systematically address
cultural and intellectual traditions around the globe. Many of
these are exposed for consideration for the first time in English.
The chapters explore dominant ideas and historiographical trends,
and open them up to critical transnational perspectives. This
volume is essential reading for both academics and students in
economic and social history. As this field of study is very much a
bridge between the social sciences and humanities, the issues
examined in the book will also have relevance for those seeking to
understand the evolution of other academic disciplines under the
pressures of varied economic, political and cultural circumstances,
on both national and global scales.
