Book Description
An attempt has been made in this book to study the port city of Surat during the seventeenth century. The port of Surat epitomised in this crucial period the burgeoning of international trade, and the inter play and commercial rivalry of the Europeans power.Surat was a significant centre of shipping in the 17th Century. Down to the early half of that Century, India produced all her shipping needed aimed at coastal as well as Indian Ocean Trade. Later, demand by European companies led to the production of 'European-type' ships.The study is also an endeavour to place Surat in a larger historical perspective. India had a rich tradition of oceanic trade and maritime techniques since ancient times. It was the Portuguese who supplanted the Arab traders in the Indian Ocean area. The 'Vasco da Gama era' witnessed the beginning of strong monopolistic tendencies coercion and competition.

The Arabian Seas: The Indian Ocean World of the Seventeenth Century
Author: Rene J. BarendsePublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317458362
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 566
Book Description
The Arabian Seas is a magisterial work on the world political economy (trade, war, power) that explores the intersect of the worlds of Islam (including South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and East Africa) and the European world-economy (particularly the seafaring Portuguese, Dutch, and British) on the eve of the modern world system. It is likely to become a classic in its field and one of the pillars of the emerging literature in recent years that has begun to recast our understanding of the "early modern history" of Asia and the world economy, underlining the early and long predominance of Asia in the world economy and showing the long and deep ties between European and Asian economic and military interactions. This work centrally addresses current debates on the nature of the early modern world system and the relative strengths of East and West. There are no competitors for this book, but it may be compared with Braudel's masterful studies of the Mediterranean in the sense that it does for the Arabian Seas (Indian Ocean World) spanning South Asia, the Middle East, and the East African Coast and beyond what Braudel did for the Mediterranean.

Trade and Finance in Portuguese India

ISBN: 9788170225072
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
This work marks a sharp departure from the predominant Eurocentric emphasis in Indo Portuguese studies, on the sixteenth century Portuguese trade in the Carreira da India. Such an approach unjustly dismisses the subsequent centuries as periods of no commercial consequence to the Estado da India and Portugal and relegates to an un important level the significance of the privately operated intra Asian trade. The evidence gathered and their argument of this book challenges such prevailing stereo types. Based on a wide range on archival sources in India, Portugal and England, this study unravels the existence of a thriving native operated country trade, in 'the splendid' and 'the trifling' that emanated from Portuguese India in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It not only took advantage of the vulnerability displayed and the animation efforts undertaken by the Estado da India and the metropolis but also learned to function through 'crevices' under the growing British hegemony--
