Routledge Handbook of Major Events in Economic History

Zusatztext "To the handbook's credit! Parker and Whaples take an expansive view of the term "event." Instead of restricting the handbook to events that are focused in time! they open it up to broader events that play out over many years. [?] Each chapter stands alone and is written so that previous knowledge of the time period is helpful but not necessary. The handbook thus stands as a useful reference tool for anyone who wants to know more about key historical events! as well as those who need a starting place for their own research." - Matthew Jaremski!

Zusammenfassung The Handbook of Major Events in Economic History aims to introduce readers to the important macroeconomic events of the past two hundred years. The chapters endeavour to explain what went on and why during the most significant economic epochs of the nineteenth, twentieth and early twenty-first centuries and how where we are today fits in this historical timeline. Its short chapters reflect the most up-to-date research and are written by well-known economists who are authorities on their subjects. The Handbook of Major Events in Economic History was written with the intent of presenting the professional consensus in explaining the economics driving these historical events.
