Routledge Handbook of the History of Global Economic Thought
The Routledge Handbook of the History of
Global Economic Thought offers the first comprehensive overview of the
long-run history of economic thought from a truly international
perspective. Although globalization has facilitated the spread of ideas
between nations, the history of economics has tended to be studied
either thematically (by topic), in terms of different currents of
thought, or individually (by economist). Work has been published in the
past on the economic thought traditions of specific countries, but this
pioneering volume is unique in offering a wide-ranging comparative
account of the development of economic ideas and philosophies on the
international stage.
The volume brings together leading experts on the development of economic ideas from across the world in order to offer a truly international comparison of the economics within nation-states. Each author presents a long-term perspective on economics in their region, allowing global patterns in the progress of economic ideas over time to be identified.
The specially commissioned chapters cover the vast sweep of the history of economics across five world regions, including Europe (England, Scotland, Ireland, Italy Greece, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Sweden, Russia and the Ukraine), the Americas (the USA, Canada, Mexico and Central America, Spanish-Speaking South America, Brazil and the Caribbean), the Middle East (Turkey, Israel, Arab-Islamic Economics, Persia/Iran, North Africa), Africa (West Africa, Southern Africa, Mozambique and Angola), and the Asia-Pacific Region (Australia and New Zealand, China, Southeast Asia, the Asian Tigers, India.)
This rigorous, ambitious and highly scholarly volume will be of key interest to students, academics, policy professionals and to interested general readers across the globe.
