International Bullion Flows and the Chinese Economy, circa 1530–1650
The most successful of those leaders were Toyotomi Hideyoshi (1536–1598) and the first Tokugawa shogun, Ieyasu (1542–1616), whose commercial and foreign policies have been the subjects of numerous studies. China’s other major source of silver at this time was the New World, where fabulously rich mines had been discovered by the Spanish during the 1540s. As D. A. Brading, Harry E. Cross and others have demonstrated, however, it was not until the m…

Time, Money, and the Weather

By then, the 'state of the world' was at a much lower level than it had reached in the early fourteenth century. During the depression of the fifteenth century, the absolute level of inter-societal trade dropped, currencies were un…
Ming observers of Ming decline
Most students of Middle Eastern history in the West will probably recognize the title of this paper as an allusion to Bernard Lewis's well-known article “Ottoman observers of Ottoman decline”. The allusion is meant to be more than a mere play on words, however, for Professor Lewis's discussion of the reactions of Ottoman statesmen to the crises that rocked their society in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries contains much that is r…
Some Observations on the "Seventeenth-Century Crisis" in China and Japan
For more than three decades now, scholars have been debating whether or not a "general crisis" occurred in European social, economic, and political history during the seventeenth century. The debate is far from over, but one of its happy side effects has been that students of seventeenth-century Spain, France, or England now are rarely satisfied to study their chosen countries in total isolation. Indeed, it is generally agreed that many aspects o…
