Economic history explores developments in the economy over time, thereby bridging historiography and economics. This textbook offers German-speaking readers a balanced focus on history and economics. It illustrates the power of concepts and methods from economics when applied to understanding broader historical issues. History brings life to what might otherwise be dry economic theory.
