Adverse impacts of metaverse-induced cognitive biases on the immersive shopping experience
Premodern Germany and the teleology of economic history
The most important question in economic history concerns the causes of sustained growth. For some time, the standard narrative in the English-language scholarship (which dominates this aspect of economic history just as it dominates the discipline of economics) has seen the answer to this puzzle in a series of related developments that are thought to be, if not unique to, then at least predominant in premodern England, centering around the develo…
Chris Wickham on ‘The Economic Logic of Medieval Societies
Chris Wickham’s theory regarding the feudal economy is predicated on the continuing existence and numerical majority of peasant producers with direct access to their means of subsistence. While his theory holds good for the period up to c.1200, after that point, the numbers of those without direct access to their full means of subsistence increased so much that their impact on the economy has to be considered in any explanatory model. Furthermore…
Social Inequality in Early Medieval Europe
That inequality was common within medieval society is a well-established fact. However, it has been studied mostly in connection with the differences between quite discrete social strata: landlords and peasants, guild masters and apprentices, wealthy householders and servants. Less attention has been paid to stratification within each of these layers of medieval society, though it has become apparent from the research of the past few decades that…
Geographies of Occupation in South Asia
Nosheen Ali, Mona Bhan, Sahana Ghosh, Hafsa Kanjwal, Zunaira Komal, Deepti Misri, Shruti Mukherjee, Nishant Upadhyay, Saiba Varma, Ather Zia, Geographies of Occupation in South Asia, Feminist Studies, Vol. 45, No. 2-3, Indigenous Feminisms in Settler Contexts (2019), pp. 574-580
Rural Commercialisation in Fourteenth- Century Southern Germany
This article explores the extent and nature of rural commercialisation in Bavaria and neighbouring regions in the middle of the fourteenth century. Although it is now generally accepted that English rural society was already highly commercialised by this point, the situation in England has rarely been subject to detailed comparison with other parts of Europe, and few studies exist that examine rural commercialisation in medieval Germany. On the b…
Rural Economies and Transitions to Capitalism
Based on a synthesis of the empirical scholarship on E ngland and G ermany, this paper demonstrates that in both regions, rural socio‐economic developments from c. 1200 to c. 1800 are similar: this period witnesses the rise to numerical predominance and growing economic significance of the ‘sub‐peasant classes’, which had a growing impact on the market as a result of their increasing market dependence, and from which – towards the end of the peri…
The Moral Economy
A Rejoinder to Tirthankar Roy
I am grateful to Tirthankar Roy for his prompt response, and his generosity in acknowledging the validity of some of my criticisms. It will be obvious to readers that there are some fundamental disagreements between us regarding what constitutes economic history. On this, and a number of other issues that Professor Roy has chosen not to address, it would be tedious to repeat myself; we must agree to disagree and invite readers of this journal to …
How Should We Approach the Economy of 'Early Modern India
Tirthankar Roy's recent synthesis on the economic history of early modern India claims to provide a new, overarching narrative placing this period within the broader sweep of the history of what Roy defines as 'capitalism' in India in the very long term. This article provides a detailed critique of Roy's monograph, suggesting that it suffers from some serious methodological deficits, arising not least from a future-oriented paradigm that imposes …
Reframing the Feudal Revolution
In western Europe -thus runs one of the standard narratives of medieval history -it is only after c.1200 that we really find the beginnings of administrative bureaucracies, which allowed for the growth of centralised governments, and were fed by the rise of professional law, enabled by growing literacy at various levels of society, and were one of the key elements in what John Watts has characterised as 'the making of polities' in later medieval …

The “Great Divergence,” Politics, and Capitalism
Proceeding from a critical assessment of two recent books, Prasannan Parthasarathi’s Why Europe Grew Rich and Asia Did Not , and Jean-Laurent Rosenthal and R. Bin Wong’s Before and Beyond Divergence , this paper takes stock of the present state of the “Great Divergence” debate. It is argued that the discussion needs to be refined to distinguish between levels of economic development, and paths or trends, in the eighteenth century as well as betwe…

Enduring Loss in Early Modern Germany
Kings' Sagas and Norwegian History
This book is an examination of some of the principal issues arising from the study of the kings' sagas, the main narrative sources for Norwegian history before c. 1200. Providing an overview of the past two decades of scholarship, it discusses the vexed relationship between verse and prose and the reliability as historical sources of the verse alone or the combination of verse and prose; the possibility and extent of non-native influence on the c…
