Volume III investigates what Braudel terms "world-economies"--the economic dominance of a particular city at different periods of history, from Venice to Amsterdam, London, New York.
Reviews:
This book concludes French historian Braudel's groundbreaking trilogy, in which he concentrates on the ordinary human activities that underlie modern politics, commerce and culture. Here he tells the story of Western Europe's gradual domination of international trade in the modern era. "A magisterial work," PW observed.
