Merchant organisation was a global phenomenon in the early modern
era, and in the growing contacts between peoples and cultures,
merchants may be seen as privileged intermediaries. This collection
is unique in essaying a truly global coverage of mercantile
activities, from the Wangara of the Central Sudan, Mississippi and
Huron Indians, to the role of the Jews, the Muslim merchants of
Anatolia, to the social structure of the mercantile classes in
early modern England. The histories of merchant communities are not
their histories alone, but also the histories of assumptions
concerning their contexts. From the comparative perspective adopted
here, it emerges that in markets where Western European merchants
vied for place with competitors from the Near East, South Asia or
East Asia, they were very often unsuccessful.
