Merchant Colonies in the Early Modern Period cover

Merchant colonies were a significant factor for economic growth in Europe during the early modern period. The essays in this collection look at merchant colonies across Europe, assessing their function, legal status, interaction with local traders and assimilation into their host countries.

'these essays do not just expand the geographical boundaries well beyond Western Europe, but also emphasize the importance of studying these merchant colonies by taking a longer timeframe than that of one or two generations of traders.' European History Quarterly
