Title: The making of global finance 1880-1913
First published: 2004
Description: "This book traces the roots of global financial integration in the first "modern" era of globalisation from 1880 to 1913. It analyses the direction, destinations and origins, of international financial flows in order to determine the domestic policy choices that either attracted or deterred such flows to developing countries." "The Making of Global Finance 1880-1913 can serve as a valuable tool to current-day policy dilemmas by using historical data to see which policies in the past led to enhanced international financing for development. It also includes historical data that will interest all scholars of economics and economic history, as well as the casual reader."--Jacket.
