From Old Regime to Industrial State: A History of German Industrialization from the Eighteenth Century to World War I

From Old Regime to Industrial State: A History of German Industrialization from the Eighteenth Century to World War I (Markets and Governments in Economic History) by Richard H. Tilly, Michael Kopsidis
English | October 26, 2020 | ISBN: 022672543X | True EPUB/PDF | 312 pages | 1.8/2.2 MB

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.
