This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Silk Industry of the World at the Opening of the Twentieth Century In this pamphlet it is not deemed necessary to describe what raw silk is, or how it is grown, or what the processes of sericulture and the silk worm are. Numerous publications, both in this country and abroad, give this information very fully, and it seems superfluous to reproduce it. The aim here is to trace the development of the silk industry in the principal countries which manufacture silk fabrics, to describe the processes of manufacture, and to indicate the causes and present conditions of its progress and equipment at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Notwithstanding the antiquity of the silk industry, and the important relation that the principal countries of the world have borne to it from time to time, it is plainly evident that the silk industry of to-day is a modern achievement. The major portion of the pamphlet was originally prepared by the writer as an article for the "Encyclopedia Americana" an entirely new work from the Twentieth Century point of view, now being published in 16 volumes by the Scientific American Compiling Department. It is now reprinted by the Silk Association of America for distribution among its members, with "copyright" permission of the publishers of the "Encyclopedia Americana."

Book Synopsis A Global History of Silk by : Pierre Vernus
Download or read book A Global History of Silk written by Pierre Vernus and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-10-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the global development of the production and trade of silk and related industries from a historical perspective. From the sixteenth to the twentieth century, it takes long-term movements and global dynamics into account. Covering a wide geographical area, including East-Asia, Northern and Southern Europe, and North-America, the respective contributions examine economic activities related to silk production, silk processing, trading and consumption of silk and silk fabrics, while also highlighting diverse paths of industrialization and economic development. The book is divided into three parts, the first of which features contributions on silk markets and trade, covering topics such as auction sales and Sino-European trade. The second part addresses issues of work organization, institutional developments and the gendered division of labour, discussing topics such as systems of home-based and factory production and the organization of quality control. In turn, the third part highlights technological innovations and knowledge transfer. This book appeals to scholars and students of economic history who are interested in a better understanding of the key features and patterns in the development of the silk industry and trade and, more widely, in the global economic history of the early modern and modern periods.
Book Synopsis The Digital Silk Road by : Jonathan E. Hillman
Download or read book The Digital Silk Road written by Jonathan E. Hillman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An expert on China’s global infrastructure expansion provides an urgent look at the battle to connect and control tomorrow’s networks. From the ocean floor to outer space, China’s Digital Silk Road aims to wire the world and rewrite the global order. Taking readers on a journey inside China’s surveillance state, rural America, and Africa’s megacities, Jonathan Hillman reveals what China’s expanding digital footprint looks like on the ground and explores the economic and strategic consequences of a future in which all routers lead to Beijing. If China becomes the world’s chief network operator, it could reap a commercial and strategic windfall, including many advantages currently enjoyed by the United States. It could reshape global flows of data, finance, and communications to reflect its interests. It could possess an unrivaled understanding of market movements, the deliberations of foreign competitors, and the lives of countless individuals enmeshed in its networks. However, China’s digital dominance is not yet assured. Beijing remains vulnerable in several key dimensions, the United States and its allies have an opportunity to offer better alternatives, and the rest of the world has a voice. But winning the battle for tomorrow’s networks will require the United States to innovate and take greater risks in emerging markets. Networks create large winners, and this is a contest America cannot afford to lose.
