Im Mittelpunkt dieses Bandes stehen die deutsch-niederländischen Wirtschaftsbeziehungen vom 19. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart. Auf deren stürmisches Wachstum im späten 19. Jahrhundert folgten in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts mehrere krisen- und kriegsbedingte Rückschläge. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg erreichten sie ein im internationalen Vergleich beispielloses Ausmaß. Sowohl aus niederländischer als auch deutscher Perspektive spricht vieles dafür, die Wirtschaftsgeschichte beider Länder in ihrer Reziprozität zu erforschen. Neben historisch-chronologischen Übersichten zu den Wirtschaftsbeziehungen setzen die Beiträge thematische Schwerpunkte, unter anderem zur Bedeutung des Rotterdamer Hafens für beide Länder und zur Geschichte des niederländisch-britischen Multinationals Unilever in Deutschland. Hein A. Klemann ist Professor für Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte an der Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam und Friso Wielenga ist Direktor des Zentrums für Niederlande-Studien an der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität Münster.

Economic globalisation and universal human rights both have the aspiration and power to improve and enrich individuals and communities. However, their respective institutions, methods, practices and goals differ, leading to both detrimental clashes and beneficial synergies. In this book, David Kinley analyses how human rights intersect with the trade, aid and commercial dimensions of global economic relations, taking the view that, while the global economy is a vitally important civilising instrument, it itself requires civilising according to human rights standards. Combining meticulous research with highly informed views and experiences, he outlines the intellectual, policy and practical frameworks for ensuring that the global economy advances the ends of human rights, argues for better exploitation of the global economy's capacity to distribute as well as create wealth, and proposes mechanisms by which to minimise and manage the socially debilitating effects of its market failures and financial meltdowns.

The author combines macroeconomic history with a brief exposition of economic theory that stems from and explains that history and explores how that experience may apply to the future. He examines the Great Depression, World War II and the following prosperous quarter century, the stagflation and recovery of the 1970s and 1980s, the information technology boom that lasted through the 1990s, and the current economic crisis. In most macroeconomic crises, the worst case--depression or inflation--is fairly clear, and modern policymakers have the tools at hand to cope. He warns that the worst case
