SynopsisOrigins of Globalization draws widely on ancient sources and modern economic theory to detail the concept of "known world" globalization, arguing that a mixed economy--similar in many respects to our own--existed in a variety of forms throughout the ancient world. By analyzing the business practices of the ancient world--phenomena such as resource and market seeking behavior, international trade from China, India and Rome, to Africa and even northern and western parts of Europe, Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) operating internationally and outsourcing production, multicultural workforces, tariff reduced zones, interregional tax issues, and the management of currency risks--the authors provide readers with a unique historical interpretation of the contemporary globalizing economy and a durable theoretical framework for future historical economic analyses., The Origins of Globalization presents a startling look at the shape of "known world" globalization, dating back to the Roman Empire and earlier, including multicultural workforces, tariff reduced zones, interregional tax issues, currency risks, and other phenomena., The Origins of Globalization presents a startling look at the shape of "known world" globalization, dating back to the Roman Empire and earlier, including multicultural workforces, tariff reduced zones, interregional tax issues, currency risks, and other phenomena.
