Starting with a critical review of the literature on social and economic development, including the works of Frank Knight, Max Weber, Joseph Schumpeter and Peter Drucker, it offers a historical analysis of the expansion of markets, cities and trade in medieval Europe, and the monopolization of trade by the emerging European nation states. The book also presents a case study on the rise and decline of the Dutch Republic, discusses topics such as the disadvantages of the central direction of economic organizations, and federal decentralization as a model for promoting growth and investment, and illustrates how successful companies like Semco and Google are building on centuries-old management principles.Economic historyDevelopment economicsDemocracyEconomic developmentEconomic Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000Development Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Democracyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911050History of Economic Thought/Methodologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W28000Economic Growthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W44000Economic history.Development economics.Democracy.Economic development.Economic History.Development Economics.Democracy.History of Economic Thought/Methodology.Economic Growth.330.9Brouwer Mariaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut88882BOOK9910254881603321Governmental Forms and Economic Development2184049UNINA
