The authors argue against conventional accounts that locate the origins of capitalism solely within Europe and within the conjuncture of the industrial revolution. The essays emphasize historical conjunctures, flows of commodities, circulation of knowledge and personnel, the role of mercantile capital and small producers and stress throughout the necessity to think beyond present day national boundaries. The volume contends with cliches of Western exceptionalism to make a set of historical arguments about non-Western and interconnected economic developments across the globe, prior to the era of colonialism. It argues fundamentally that the multiple histories of capitalism can be better understood from a truly global perspective Also issued online Geschichte gnd Capitalism History Congresses Capitalism fast Kapitalismus (DE-588)4029577-1 gnd Conference papers and proceedings fast History fast Revisiting the History of Capitalism Workshop 2016 Johannesburg, South Africa Yazdani Kaveh editor Menon Dilip M. editor Centre for Indian Studies in Africa organizer Johannesburg Institute for Advanced Study organizer University of the Witwatersrand host institution BK020800 XK020000 XK020000 acq-record IDSBB A125 A125 125F1 UBW_ IDSBB 700 1- Revisiting the History of Capitalism Workshop 2016 Johannesburg, South Africa IDSBB 700 1- Yazdani Kaveh editor IDSBB 700 1- Menon Dilip M. editor IDSBB 700 1- Centre for Indian Studies in Africa organizer IDSBB 700 1- Johannesburg Institute for Advanced Study organizer IDSBB 700 1- University of the Witwatersrand host institution
