Boken är ett unikt nationellt projekt genom dess representation av författare från samtliga svenska lärosäten som undervisar i ekonomisk historia på alla utbildningsnivåer. Bokens 25 författare är också aktiva forskare och bidragen bygger på en stor samlad erfarenhet av aktuell svensk och internationell forskning inom ämnet.Vad är ekonomisk historia? är en introducerande lärobok i ekonomisk historia som syftar till att väcka nyfikenhet för ämnet, samt visa på dess möjligheter som akademisk disciplin och tillämpad samhällsvetenskap. Boken visar hur ekonomisk-historiska perspektiv, teorier och metoder kan användas för att analysera olika utvecklingsförlopp med avgörande betydelse för samhällsutvecklingen då som nu.Genom att använda olika verktyg ur de historiska och ekonomiska verktygslådorna vänder och vrider forskare inom ekonomisk historia på begrepp som tillväxt, industrialisering, resursfördelning, kapital och arbete. På detta sätt bidrar ämnet till vår förståelse av mänsklighetens långa historia, samtidigt som det också bidrar med nya perspektiv på vår egen samtid.Vad är ekonomisk historia? består av 13 kapitel, de tre första kapitlen behandlar ämnets historia, teorier och metoder. De därpå följande kapitlen lyfter ett urval av de frågor som ekonomhistoriker arbetar med. Boken vänder sig främst till universitets- och högskolestudenter på grundläggande nivå och fungerar utmärkt som en introduktion till ämnet.

International cartels are powerful organizations that impact our everyday lives, although they are little known. This book presents 15 historical case studies of international cartels that include agricultural and mineral commodities, the machinery industry, telephone equipment, whiskey and cement. These cases reveal that international cartels manipulated prices and shared markets over many decades but that their real impact was far wider. The global convergence towards criminalizing serious cartel conduct has seen a revival in historical research on cartels and competition policy. The regulation of anti-competitive behaviour has changed over time. To understand why the US, European and other modern economies altered their policies through the 20th century, it is critical to understand when, how and why governments have interacted with, and been influenced by, business organizations such as cartels. This volume draws together researchers from different nations to examine the impact of international cartels on the experience of individual nations, those nations’ interactions with one or more international cartels, and ultimately the interactions of individual nations with the wider international community.This book will be of interest to researchers, academics and advanced students in the fields of business and economic history, political economy, and government policy, as well as those interested in cartels and their impact on the wider economy.

Cartels, trusts and agreements to reduce competition between firms have existed for centuries, but became particularly prevalent toward the end of the 19th century. In the mid-20th century governments began to use so called ‘cartel registers’ to monitor and regulate their behaviour. This book provides cases studies from more than a dozen countries to examine the emergence, application and eventual decline of this form of regulation.Beginning with a comparison of the attitudes to regulation that led to monitoring, rather than prohibiting cartels, this book examines the international studies on cartels undertaken by the League of Nations before World War II. This is followed by a series of studies on the context of the registers, including the international context of the European Union, and the importance of lobby groups in shaping regulatory outcomes, using Finland as an example. Section two provides a broad international comparison of several countries’ registers, with individual studies on Norway, Australia, Japan, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands. After examining the impact of registration on business behaviour in the insurance industry, this book concludes with an overview of the lessons to be learnt from 20th century efforts to regulate competition. With a foreword by Harm Schroter, this book outlines the rise and fall of a system that allowed nations to tailor their approach to regulating competition to their individual circumstances whilst also responding to the pressures of globalisation that emerged after the Second World War. This book is suitable for those who are interested in and study economic history, international economics and business history.

This book takes as its point of departure the strong Swedish economic-historical scholarly tradition that has combined rigorous macroeconomic analysis with a classical institutional approach when investigating Swedish economic development. One important scholar in this tradition is Professor Lena Andersson-Skog, who has in her scholarly work focused on, among other things, the role of infrastructure, regulation, entrepreneurship, and female labour. To honour Andersson-Skog’s path-breaking work, this book consists of chapters written by her colleagues and former students in which they combine this tradition with new research into the themes of the role of infrastructure, institutional framework and regulation, entrepreneurship, and female labour. This is not an ordinary Festschrift, but rather a collection of essays of recent important research into Swedish economic history, with new data and insights.
