Book Synopsis
Este libro analiza 250 años de historia económica y social de Gran Bretaña: el origen de la Revolución Industrial, su papel pionero en la economía mundial, los industriales y los productores de materias primas, las metrópolis y las zonas coloniales o semicoloniales del mundo entero, y su posterior decadencia durante el siglo XX debida a su temprana eclosión como potencia industrial mundial. Sin embargo, no es posible comprender la historia de Gran Bretaña si no se tiene en cuenta su papel como eje de aquel vasto imperio sobre el que se asentaron sus fortunas durante tanto tiempo, su posterior decadencia ante el empuje de nuevas potencias económicas -Estados Unidos y Japón- o, sus actuales relaciones con la Unión Europea. Al analizar este complejo entramado de relaciones comerciales y de producción, el profesor Hobsbawm no solo nos ofrece la mejor historia económica y social de Gran Bretaña desde 1750 hasta hoy, sino que nos está explicando toda la historia económica occidental moderna. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Premier historian Eric Hobsbawm's brilliant study of the Industrial Revolution, which sold more than a quarter of a million copies in its original edition, is now back in print, updated for a new generation.In Industry and Empire, Hobsbawm explores the origin and dramatic course of the Industrial Revolution over two hundred and fifty years and its influence on social and political institutions. He describes and accounts for Britain's rise as the first industrial power, its decline from domination, its special relation with the rest of the world, and the effects of this trajectory on the lives of its ordinary citizens. This new edition includes a fascinating summary of events of the last twenty years, and an illuminating new conclusion.
