The papers presented in this book show how in this process borders were transgressed, local agents combined with metropolitan representatives, power relations were contested and frontiers expanded. Including cases from Asia, Africa and the Americas, as well as a number of global commodities (sugar, tobacco, rubber, cotton, cassava, tea and beer), this collection presents a sample of the range of innovative research taking place today into commodity history. Together they cover the last two centuries, in which commodities have led the consolidation of a globalised economy and society - forging this out of distinctive local experiences of cultivation and production, and regional circuits of trade"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001457256 650_0 $$aCommerce$$xHistory$$y19th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aCommerce$$xHistory$$y20th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aCommercial products$$xHistory$$y19th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aCommercial products$$xHistory$$y20th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aInternational trade$$xHistory$$y19th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aInternational trade$$xHistory$$y20th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aEconomic history$$y19th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 650_0 $$aEconomic history$$y20th century$$vCase studies. 001457256 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001457256 7001_ $$aCurry-Machado, Jonathan. 001457256 852__ $$bebk 001457256 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1330945$$zOnline Access 001457256 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1457256$$pGLOBAL_SET 001457256 980__ $$aBIB 001457256 980__ $$aEBOOK 001457256 982__ $$aEbook 001457256 983__ $$aOnline
