Beskrivning
In From Old Regime to Industrial State, Richard H. Tilly and Michael Kopsidis question established thinking about Germany’s industrialization. While some hold that Germany experienced a sudden breakthrough to industrialization, the authors instead consider a long view, incorporating market demand, agricultural advances, and regional variations in industrial innovativeness, customs, and governance.  They begin their assessment earlier than previous studies to show how the 18th-century emergence of international trade and the accumulation of capital by merchants fed commercial expansion and innovation. This book provides the history behind the modern German economic juggernaut.

Recensioner i media

“Tilly and Kopsidis have not only read a prodigious range of secondary sources on the diverse regional economies that evolved into modern Germany, but configured that literature into a narrative that connects its industrialization to geopolitics, state formation, public policy, and institutional development that goes back through heuristically demarcated stages of time into the eighteenth century. This book should be listed first on every bibliography in economic history.”
