Detailing Norway's economic performance relative to other countries at a time characterized by globalization, it has particular focus on the role of international trade, investment and migration.

Recenzje

'Moses' captivating and original study of early Norwegian economic and political development in the context of late 19th century globalization comes as a breath of fresh air. In the tradition of past classics from the likes of Eric Hobsbawm and AJP Taylor, Moses magnificently displays the depth and range of a learned scholar in a style that both students and academics will find to be illuminating.' Professor Michael E. Alvarez, University of Bergen, Norway
