Dominance through Economics

Colin Read

Chapter 8 in The Rise and Fall of an Economic Empire, 2010, pp 70-94 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract More than anything else, this New Economic World was in the right place at the right time with the right document to truly open up commerce. The new nation also had room to expand and was instantly freed from the monopolized trade routes that so restricted colonial mercantilist powers in England, France, and Spain. The new United States heralded in a freewheeling economic style where anything was possible. A Second Industrial Revolution would soon take hold and would attract people from around the world who valued economic freedom and had little to lose.
