Description
This course will focus on the prominent business, economic, historical and sociological conditions and developments which took place during the 12th – 16th century Europe upon which modern capitalistic systems and practices were built on. Emphasis will be given on Renaissance Italy as it has been inevitably the most interesting and phenomenal case. Throughout this course students should develop a clear understanding as to what capitalism is and how it is profoundly associated with historical, sociological and economic changes within the designated place and period of study.
