Abstract:
The development of pre-industrial Europe was driven by the expansion
of trade. This paper describes the patterns of trade and shows how
they can be understood in terms of differences in trading costs. It
discusses how the different levels of trade - from local to
transoceanic-contributed, both quantitatively and qualitatively, to
the process of growth.
