Lyonnais, The: A Changing Economy

Synopsis
An introduction to the human and social dimensions of economic history. Shows that industrialisation is not the uniform process it is often assumed to be. Illustrations from the French Lyonnais region in the 19th century include the industrialisation and politicisation of Lyon’s silk weaving industry and the relationship between city and country, shown by exploring the connection between banking and wine production in the Beaujolais region.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
