Abstract

During the 19th century, European countries not only industrialised heavily but they also traded with each other and with overseas areas in an until hitherto unkown degree. By 1913, a globalised economy has emerged, which -after the draw-back of the two world wars and the disentagration of the world economy occurring between these wars- did not reappear before the 1960s or even the 1970s. The paper presents the hitorical precedents to global markets.
