A History of Architecture and Trade draws together essays from an
international roster of distinguished and emerging scholars to
critically examine the important role architecture and urbanism
played in the past five hundred years of global trading, moving
away from a conventional Western narrative. The book uses an
alternative holistic lens through which to view the development of
architecture and trade, covering diverse topics such as the
coercive urbanism of the Dutch East India Company; how slavery and
capitalism shaped architecture and urbanization; and the importance
of Islamic trading in the history of global trade. Each chapter
examines a key site in history, using architecture, landscape and
urban scale as evidence to show how trade has shaped them. It will
appeal to scholars and researchers interested in areas such as
world history, economic and trade history and architectural
history.
