National Brands and Global Markets : An Historical Perspective
Between Brexit, efforts to ‘Make America great again’, and ongoing appeals for patriotic consumption to boost economies, the intersection between national identity, marketing campaigns, and consumer choices has been brought to the fore.This book maps out this terrain and provides a framework for how research on ‘Made in’ campaigns and programmes in individual countries can be placed into a broader historical context.The book argues that the history of ‘Made in’ can be used to shed light on society at large: the actors that have promoted it, the institutions that have regulated it, and the cultural environments that have attributed it meaning.At times ‘Made in’ has been a basic, descriptive trade mark, while, in other periods, it has been a key component of carefully developed commercial brands, and in yet other instances it has been used in attempts to forge and redefine national identities.The book opens with an introduction to the three key factors which have featured prominently in ‘Made in’ campaigns – commercial logic, national economic policy, and its use as an instrument in political discourse, and it provides an overview of the evolution of ‘Made in’ from a marketing perspective.This is followed by country-specific discussions of ‘Made in’ with case studies including countries in Western Europe, the US, Japan, and the antipodes. This book will be of significant interest to students and scholars of economic history, business history, and marketing. Chapter 7 of this book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www.routledge.com.It has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

Raced Markets
Despite rich archives of work on race and the global economy, most notably by scholars of colour and Global South intellectuals, the discipline of Political Economy has largely avoided an honest confrontation with how race works within the domains it studies, not least within markets.By way of corrective, this book draws together scholarship on the material function of race at various scales in the global political economy.The collective provocation of the contributors to this volume is that race has been integral to the formation of capitalism – as extensively laid out by the racial capitalism literature – and takes on new forms in the novel market spaces of neoliberalism.The chapters within this volume also reinforce that the current political conjuncture, marked by the ascension of neo-fascist power, cannot be defined by an exceptional intrusion of racism, nor can its racism be dismissed as epiphenomenal.Raced Markets will be of great value to scholars, students, and researchers interested in political economy and racial capitalism as well as those willing to explore how race takes on new forms in the novel market spaces of contemporary neoliberalism. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the New Political Economy.

Should the winter markets/Christmas markets be closed this year?
The decision to close winter markets or Christmas markets this year should be based on the current public health situation and the potential risk of spreading COVID-19. If there is a high level of community transmission and the markets are likely to attract large crowds, it may be necessary to consider closing them to protect public health. However, if proper safety measures can be implemented, such as capacity limits, social distancing, and mask mandates, then it may be possible to keep the markets open with precautions in place.

The Financial Markets of Roman Egypt : Risk and Return
The Financial Markets of Roman Egypt analyses some 4,367 financial transactions, leases, sales and loans, recorded on papyri in Roman Egypt in the period AD 1 to 350.The analysis of this remarkable body of information, the ancient equivalent of modern-day ‘Big Data’, helps us understand how ordinary people thought about some of the most important decisions they would make in their life: buying a house, lending their savings or renting land.Using innovative theories and techniques inspired by classics, mathematics and the financial markets, it brings out the differences and similarities of behaviours with modern and historical comparators. The book looks at risk and return for both asset holders - the landlords and lenders - and thosedependent on the use of those assets - the tenants and borrowers.In particular it quantifies the risks facing families, including climate variability.Issues such as wealth concentration, social mobility and the role of the aged and women in the financial markets are addressed. The analysis presented expands our knowledge of the nature of the financial markets, and from that examination a sharper insight into the nature of the economy of the Roman world is gained,making it clear that there was no single “market” economy, but different sectors, some of which were driven by reciprocity/redistribution and others by financially rational judgements.

What are markets and prices?
Markets are where buyers and sellers come together to exchange goods and services. Prices, on the other hand, are the monetary value assigned to these goods and services in the market. Prices are determined by the interaction of supply and demand in the market, reflecting the preferences and behaviors of both buyers and sellers. They play a crucial role in allocating resources efficiently and signaling information about the scarcity and value of goods and services in the economy.
