Description

Long before London and New York rose to international prominence, a trading route used to be found out between Spanish The usa and China that ushered in a new era of globalization. The Ruta de la Plata or “Silver Way” catalyzed economic and cultural exchange, built the rules for the primary global currency, and led to the upward push of the primary “world city.” And yet, for all its importance, the Silver Way is too ceaselessly neglected in conventional narratives at the birth of globalization. Gordon and Morales re-establish its fascinating role in economic and cultural history, with direct consequences for how we remember China lately.
