In the 19th Century, economic growth was accompanied by
large-scale structural change, known as industrialization, which
fundamentally affected western societies. Even though
industrialization is on the wane in some advanced economies and we
are experiencing substantial structural changes again, the causes
and consequences of these changes are inextricably linked with
earlier industrialization.This means that understanding 19th
Century industrialization helps us understand problems of
contemporary economic growth. There is no recent study on economic
developments in 19th Century Germany. So this concise volume,
written specifically with students of German and economic history
in mind, will prove to be most valuable, not least because of its
wealth of statistical data.
