The authors argue that markets were not only places of material exchange, but also socially structured entities, shaped by the agency of individual actors and by complex structures of political and economic power. Economic transactions were supported by an array of different institutions, ranging from formalised regulations to informal relations of personal trust. They argue that these networks were strong enough to prosper even during and after World War I, in a political climate often hostile to foreign trade. The Foundations of Worldwide Economic Integration shows that institutionalism altered its shape in the face of circumstances that increasingly challenged international trade. By presenting case studies from various countries, this book offers a fresh perspective on crucial periods of economic globalisation.Cambridge studies in the emergence of global enterprise.International economic integrationHistoryInternational tradeHistoryInternational financeHistoryInternational economic relationsHistoryGlobalizationEconomic aspectsHistoryInternational economic integrationHistory.International tradeHistory.International financeHistory.International economic relationsHistory.GlobalizationEconomic aspectsHistory.337.09/034BUS023000bisacshDejung ChristofPetersson Niels P.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910779440003321The foundations of worldwide economic integration3817269UNINA
