Vera Zamagni charts the remarkable story of European economic
growth from the birth of industrialization through to the present
day. Setting European events within the wider context of world
economic progress and alongside developments in Asia, Eastern
Europe and the United States, she provides an up-to-date and
authoritative survey suitable for course use. The book begins with
an outline of the economic landscape of the late Middle Ages before
exploring the process of European industrialization, including how
the British model was replicated across Europe, and why Britain was
unable to maintain its position relative to other economies, in
particular the United States. The advent of global finance is
examined and the economic impact of world war and revolution is
assessed. European reconstruction and integration is analysed
alongside the decline of Russia and the growth of the Asian
economies. The book ends with an assessment of the impact of the
global crash of 2008 and the subsequent crisis of the Eurozone.
Throughout her analysis, Zamagni shows how the social and economic
institutions and values of European civilization catalyzed economic
progress. That these same structures are now threatened makes this
history particularly timely.
