The scholarship is of the highest quality.? ? Bronwen Everill, Gonville & Caius College, University of Cambridge, UK This book focuses on the significant role of West African consumers in the development of the global economy. It explores their demand for Indian cotton textiles and how their consumption shaped patterns of global trade, influencing economies and businesses from Western Europe to South Asia. In turn, the book examines how cotton textile production in southern India responded to this demand. Through this perspective of a south-south economic history, the study foregrounds African agency and considers the lasting impact on production and exports in South Asia. It also considers how European commercial and imperial expansion provided a complex web of networks, linking West African consumers and Indian weavers. Crucially, it demonstrates the emergence of the modern global economy. . 410 0$aCambridge Imperial and Post-Colonial Studies,$x2635-1633 606 $aWorld history 606 $aAfrica?History 606 $aAsia?History 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aLabor?History 606 $aWorld History, Global and Transnational History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000 606 $aAfrican History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/714000 606 $aHistory of South Asia$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715040 606 $aEconomic History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000 606 $aLabor History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/725000 615 0$aWorld history. 615 0$aAfrica?History. 615 0$aAsia?History. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aLabor?History. 615 14$aWorld History, Global and Transnational History. 615 24$aAfrican History. 615 24$aHistory of South Asia. 615 24$aEconomic History. 615 24$aLabor History. 676 $a338.173510954 700 $aKobayashi$b Kazuo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225544 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483832003321 996 $aIndian Cotton Textiles in West Africa$92845418 997 $aUNINA
