In Dutch Deltas, Werner Scheltjens examines the emergence,
functions and structure of the Low Countries' maritime transport
system between ca. 1300 and 1850. Scheltjens introduces the delta
as a suitable geographical unit of analysis for understanding the
regional economic origins of communities of maritime transporters.
The author proves that changes in maritime trade networks and in
the structure of regional economies entailed a process of
specialisation, which led to the emergence of 'professional'
maritime transport communities and the development of an integrated
maritime transport market with Amsterdam and Rotterdam as its main
centres. Dutch Deltas offers the first comprehensive study of the
economic geography of the Low Countries' maritime transport sector
and its long-term development between 1300 and 1850.
