Money in Troubled Times: Revolt in the Spanish Netherlands, or the Dutch Revolution
19.99 €
For many years and even centuries, the Netherlands has been among the economically developed countries in Europe with a high standard of living. An interesting question is how a state with a modest territory and a small population achieved such significant economic results. What impact did colonial expansion and the slave trade have on the country's development? Was the reliance on trade and shipping as the only way to prosperity justified? The author of this book presents the history of the Netherlands in the 16th-17th centuries in connection with economic activity as the basis for the current welfare of the state. The reader has the opportunity to learn about what problems arose with the delivery of money to the country and how they were solved, what measures were taken by the authorities to develop agriculture and trade, how speculation with currency and stocks created favorable conditions for the flourishing of fraud. The book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in historical facts that influence the world economy and politics today.
