Min T: The Chinese Origin of Physiocracy

The Chinese Origin of Physiocracy

Palgrave Studies in Economic History

This book offers the first comprehensive analysis of the transformation of the Brazilian coffee economy since 1960, one of the most significant yet understudied developments in modern economic history. Moving beyond classic accounts of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century plantation expansion, it traces how Brazil responded to crises through state intervention, technological innovation and institutional reform. Drawing on economic history, development economics and agricultural studies, the authors examine how mechanization, scientific research, crop diversification and shifting regional production patterns reshaped the sector and enabled Brazil to maintain its position as the world’s leading coffee producer.Situating Brazilian coffee within global commodity chains and changing patterns of consumption, the book explores the transition from a state-controlled system to a competitive, market-oriented agribusiness embedded in global trade networks. It also highlights the emergence of new production frontiers and value-added industries, including roasting and soluble coffee. By combining regional analysis with a broader political economy perspective, this study provides a vital contribution to debates on agricultural modernization, export-led development and globalization in Latin America. It will be valuable reading for scholars in economic history, Latin American studies, agricultural economics and global development.&nbsp;Herbert S. Klein

DIE VERANTWORTUNGSFALLE

Late medieval Bruges was a commercial hub that connected Hanseatic, English, Scottish, Portuguese, Spanish, Aragonese, and Italian traders. This book focuses on the conflict resolution of the aldermen and how merchants operated within this legal framework. The key question being whether Bruges was a city of justice. Although this was sometimes claimed by travellers, a lot of merchants confronted with the practicalities of conflict resolution in Bruges, disagreed. Fieremans analyses how customary law, institutional frameworks, and commerce intersected and were challenged by the aldermen's pursuit of justice. By clarifying the working of the aldermen, it advances our knowledge of the basic mechanisms of a late medieval law court and the evolution of the law courts of late medieval Flanders. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the book focuses on the interplay between commerce and justice, explores the diverse merchant communities, and considers the potential lessons it offers for understanding both historical and modern markets. It sheds light on the pragmatic legal culture of Bruges and the legal mechanisms that partially regulate commerce.

Forschungen und Berichte der Bau- und Kunstdenkmalpflege in Baden-Württemberg

Beton hat das Bauen bautechnisch und gestalterisch revolutioniert. Selbstverdichtender Beton oder auch Faserbeton haben in jüngerer Zeit Formen und Konstruktionen entstehen lassen, die früher undenkbar waren. Es lohnt sich deshalb, tiefer in die Geschichte dieses Baustoffs einzusteigen. Gerade in Baden-Württemberg finden sich bedeutende, frühe Spuren der Verwendung von Beton. Die erhaltenen Gebäude dokumentieren auf anschauliche Weise die Entwicklung des Betonbaus. Die vorliegende Publikation ist das Ergebnis einer umfassenden ingenieurtechnischen Recherche zu Betonbauten in Baden-Württemberg. Sie zeichnet die Geschichte des Betonbaus nach und macht damit auch einen wichtigen Teil der Wirtschaftsgeschichte des Landes sichtbar. In weitestgehend chronologischer Folge werden die Entwicklungen im Hoch- und Brückenbau beschrieben und anhand ausgewählter Objekte präsentiert

Are digital technologies really a silver bullet for development in the Global South?


Digital technologies are supposed to solve the challenges of climate change, projected population growth, land conflicts and food insecurity, especially in rural areas. Yet NGOs, government institutions, and private companies are increasingly adopting a trial-and-error approach as they recognize the limitations of transferring Western science and technologies to the global South.
 
This book presents the ambivalent practices and implications of digital pilot projects which aim to 'develop' both farming communities and locally adapted innovations in East Africa. Inspired by laboratory ethnographies in Science and Technology Studies, it explores the practices of testing and developing digital technologies in rural Tanzania. The multi-sited ethnography, which takes in agricultural fairs, conferences, documents, online courses, tech hubs, project offices, villages and fields, centres on three case studies, namely DAST (a digital land-formalisation tool), STAS (an AI system for agricultural productivity) and iPlus (an e-extension tool). Rather than viewing these technologies simply as welcome tools to promote connectivity, empowerment and increased production - as commonly advanced in development policy - this book foregrounds the (un)intended consequences of the planning, set-up, maintenance and results of digital pilot projects. Against the backdrop of conflicting logics between testing technologies and developing Tanzanian agriculture through them, this book considers their (un)predictable impacts on new actors, the character of development and the trial communities in rural Tanzania.

DER KAPITALISMUS DURCH&nbsp;DIE AUGEN SEINER SCHÄRFSTEN KRITIKER
 
 Wie lässt sich eine gerechtere, zukunftsfähige Gesellschaft denken? Diese zentrale Frage beschäftigt Kapitalismuskritiker seit Jahrhunderten. Rasant und gewinnbringend porträtiert John Cassidy die wichtigsten Ideen, die vor 250 Jahren genauso relevant waren wie heute: von der überraschenden Kolonialkritik Adam Smiths über Rosa Luxemburgs sozialistische Utopie bis zu den ökologischen Visionen des indischen Ökonomen J. C. Kumarappa. Ein Buch, das erklärt, warum der Kapitalismus immer wieder neue Krisen produziert und seinen Kritikern immer wieder Argumente liefert.
 
 »John Cassidy zeigt: Der Kampf zwischen dem Kapitalismus und seinen Kritikern dreht sich nicht nur um wirtschaftliche Ideen, sondern um das Wesen unserer Gesellschaft.«&nbsp;
 Joseph Stiglitz
 , Nobelpreisträger für&nbsp;Wirtschaftswissenschaften

Money, Trade and Shifting Financial Centres, 1000 – 1800

This research monograph examines agricultural e-commerce in emerging economies as a problem of market design rather than technology adoption. It asks a single question: how is digital readiness converted into trusted, formal and scalable agricultural transactions?Kazakhstan serves as the primary case, combining substantial agricultural potential, long distances between producers and consumers, uneven regional development, strong digital infrastructure and active policy interest in platform-based market access. Drawing on fieldwork in Azerbaijan and Malaysia, the book compares three contrasting routes to the same problem: infrastructure-led and private, administration-led and public, and platform-led and public.The author argues that readiness is conjunctive - the weakest layer binds - and that the constraint which recurs across all three countries is organisational: the capacity to aggregate dispersed smallholder output into commercially transactable consignments. The book closes with a sequencing framework for policy.It will interest economists of emerging markets and the digital economy, agricultural economists, and policymakers working on digital trade and rural market development.Azamat Zhanseitov

Agricultural E-Commerce in Emerging Economies

This book examines London’s eighteenth–century upholding trade. Primarily providing household furniture and upholstery goods and services at the beginning of the century, by mid-century upholders provided stylish and fashionable residential interior furnishings, funeral undertaking, and a secondary market for used household goods. Upholders were at the forefront of the development of Britain’s material culture, and were important contributors to London’s economic and social fabric. Providing context to the social and business lives of upholders, the author surveys key themes including apprenticeship, livery companies, empire, material culture, consumerism, taste and fashion, advertising, and credit. The book also explores how upholders came to dominate the funeral undertaking business, and integrated brokering, appraising, and auctioneering into their businesses.

Adapting to the economic changes and interior furnishing trends that took place in the first half of the eighteenth century, many upholders expanded their business lines. While consumer demand increased for household goods, so too did the widespread use of personal credit, which ultimately led to an increase in upholder bankruptcies after 1760. Through two case studies of financially successful upholders, the book sheds light on diverse topics such as the East India Company, banking, royal household tradesmen, and military contracting, to create an intricate understanding of their experiences. Offering new insights into the business, social, and personal lives of London’s upholders, this book demonstrates how they were instrumental in creating a new domestic commerce in eighteenth-century Britain.

A New Domestic Commerce

The Eighteenth–Century London Upholder

The material assembled in this volume offers a deeper insight into Walter Eucken's attitudes, thought, and actions during the darkest years of Germany's history: the period of National Socialism. Although Eucken, like his associates, destroyed potentially incriminating documents after the failed assassination attempt by Count Stauffenberg on Adolf Hitler on July 20, 1944, the surviving texts mark key stages in a process that ultimately led this determined opponent of the Nazi regime - an opponent from the very beginning - into active resistance against Hitler. 
 

 What rendered Eucken immune to National Socialism from the outset was his philosophically grounded abhorrence of the dissolution of the free individual into the collective, as is inherent in all totalitarian, especially 
 völkisch
 (ethno-nationalist) ideologies. His systematic opposition to the Nazi regime began with refusal, open protest, and confrontation, particularly in response to the rapid 
 Gleichschaltung
 (forced coordination) of the universities, Martin Heidegger's rectorship, and the dismantling of academic freedom by the Nazis. Following Germany's invasion of Poland and several ultimately unsuccessful attempts to exert positive influence on the centers of power in Berlin, his resistance culminated in a - necessarily cautious - participation in conspiratorial activities as an advisor and confidant to the plotters. 
 

 The texts in this volume include notes and sketches of ideas, completed manuscripts that remained unpublished during his lifetime, published essays, a transcript of the lecture "Kampf der Wissenschaften," the record of a public discussion with a Nazi district leader, an expert report commissioned by the Reich Ministry of Economics on possible "sources of war financing" at the end of 1939, the academically significant essay "Wettbewerb als Grundprinzip der Wirtschaftsverfassung" prepared within the Academy for German Law, the chapter Eucken authored for the "Primer of Economics" initiated by Carl Goerdeler, as well as the appendix he co-authored to the memorandum "Wirtschafts- und Sozialordnung" of the Bonhoeffer Circle. This memorandum was prepared on behalf of the Confessing Church with a view to a future world church conference planned for the time after the war and the hoped-for overthrow of Hitler. Retrospective additions include, among other things, Eucken's "Notizen über die Haltung der rechts- und staatswissenschaftlichen Fakultät in Freiburg während der Herrschaft des Nationalsozialismus," his funeral oration for his prematurely deceased colleague Adolf Lampe, and drafts for an obituary of Hans Großmann-Doerth, with whom, together with Franz Böhm, Eucken had launched the research program of the Freiburg School: the development of a legal order conceived as an economic constitution, whose fundamental principle would be competition.
 

 These materials make it possible to trace how Eucken, precisely through his confrontation with the rapidly escalating regime of injustice - with the enforced 
 Gleichschaltung
 , the increasing move toward a planned economy, the persecution of the Jews culminating in genocide, the other atrocities of the dictatorship, and the devastating Second World War - was able to sharpen his conception of a "humane and functional order," diametrically opposed to such a cataclysm. Eucken's theoretical design of a competitive order would later provide direction in the postwar years for the establishment of a social market economy in the young Federal Republic of Germany.
