Opis

This collection of essays examines the diversity of economic growth patterns across Europe during the late Middle Ages and debates the causes of the fourteenth century crisis which initiated profound institutional transformations.

Recenzje

"This important collection of essays offers new perspectives on the European experience of the late medieval crisis. Following up on important classics such as the ‘Brenner debate,’ case studies on individual countries and parts of Europe draw on most recent research. The volume thus provides a foundation for a new interpretation." – Markus Cerman, University of Vienna, Austria
