Description: Exploring new perspectives concerning regions traditionally considered on the margins of Europe this book fills a gap in current historiography through its analysis of cities space and economy from the High Middle Ages to the present. Markets trade and economy in general have formed the backbone of urban life ever since the emergence of cities and towns but classical theorists have largely focused on developments in Western Europe. Urban research in the last few decades has advanced in many ways to supersede and correct this still influential image and to include other parts of Europe into the analytical framework. Building on these emerging methodologies this volume pays close attention to the fringes of Europe in the East North West and South. The essays discuss the development of various spaces as nodal points for the exchange and production of commodities that took place in cities and towns. The scope of this work allows for a point of comparison to frequently studied examples in Europe encouraging readers to identify larger patterns beyond individual examples. Cities and Economy in Europe: Markets and Trade on the Margins from the Middle Ages to the Present is the perfect resource for students and researchers of economic and urban history.
