The Age of Commerce: Merchants, Markets and Wealth in the Early Modern Atlantic World
Gervais, Pierre (Universite Sorbonne Nouvelle)
In an ambitious, revisionist interpretation, Pierre Gervais argues that the early modern European economy was not a prelude to modern industrial capitalism. Structured around monopolistic groups pushing for aggressive expansion, it collapsed in the early nineteenth century and was replaced, not continued, by capitalist, productivity-based growth.
