Description

The twentieth century has seen dramatic increases in the scale and intensity of international competition, focusing on the critical issues of technological change and productivity. By the end of the nineteenth century the UK had clearly lost its economic leadership to the United States, Germany and the other European powers. The volumes reprinted here explore the factors underlying these changes, and the economic ideas developed remain relevant to today's global economy.
