The Global Economy: A Concise History traces the history of the
global economy over the past thousand years. In doing so, it
explores all the main waves of globalization, from the trade
revolution of the Middle Ages, to the Great and Little Divergence
between the West and the East, as well as the North and the South
of the world. This book examines the Industrial Revolution and the
World Wars, and their respective consequences, as well as the
interaction between technological shifts and the transition in
geopolitical equilibria. The last chapters are dedicated to an
in-depth examination of the transformation which occurred in the
global economy after 1989. The chronological structure of the book
is designed to help students memorize and understand key events.
This book also discusses broader themes, such as
convergence-divergence, growth and decline, development, and
industrial revolutions. This will make it of interest not only to
students and academics, but to all readers wishing to gain a deeper
understanding of the history and current state of the global
economy.
