# Talk:Economy of Middle-earth

IIRC a theme in that book was the clash between industrializing, modernizing Mordor and the elves opposed to Mordor vision of progress? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:34, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

We'll need a secondary source for that. I've added a little bit based on the TLR article, and will add a primary snippet too. Maybe you can look over Slavic commentary on the book? Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:00, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

Given that this article is about the fictional, in-universe economy, having a section about real-world economics seems a little bit WP:COATRACKy. I've removed the section. Partofthemachine (talk) 02:18, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Here's something that could help this article, I think. Mithoron (talk) 23:34, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
