    Resource: Economies of Asia in History

    $16.00

    This resource (16 page colour illustrated PDF) complements the resource Politics of Asia in History by examining the economic factors that influenced the History of Asia. Once again focussing on India, Arabia, China, Mongolia, Japan and Russia, this resource compares and contrasts the economies of these different regions from about 10,000 years ago to the 19th and 20th centuries, whilst examining the importance of long-distance trade in particular.

    The resource explores how economics influenced politics and vice versa and provides a useful context for any examinations of Asian History. Specific explorers and travellers are placed within this context, allowing for a broader understanding of the reasons for the interactions that occurred at different points in history.
