Sinossi

Long before European exploration, vibrant trade networks flourished worldwide. Precolonial Trade sheds light on these largely unacknowledged indigenous economic systems. These systems involved complex trade routes and diverse goods, challenging Eurocentric views of global economic history. For instance, archaeological findings reveal sophisticated trade beads and pottery, while oral histories and early writings help trace the movement of goods and ideas across continents.

 
The book examines precolonial trade routes and economic systems in regions like the Americas, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. It highlights the diverse forms of currency, credit, and social organization that governed trade in different regions. By focusing on indigenous traders' perspectives, the book offers a unique perspective on global economic history.

 
Beginning with an introduction to the theoretical framework, the book progresses through regional case studies, each chapter examining unique trade routes and goods. The conclusion synthesizes findings, comparing different regions and highlighting the lasting legacy of precolonial trade on contemporary societies.

    Chile - Historical Revolution...

    Chile’s history is a tapestry woven with threads of indigenous heritage, colonial conquest, political revolution, and economic transformation. Stretching along the western edge of South America, Chile’s unique geography—bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the towering Andes to the east—has shaped not only its physical landscape but also its historical trajectory and economic development. The country’s diverse climates, from the arid Atacama Desert in the north to the fertile central valleys and the rugged, windswept terrain of Patagonia in the south, have influenced settlement patterns, agricultural practices, and resource exploitation for centuries. 
    Long before Spanish colonization, Chile was home to numerous indigenous groups, including the Mapuche, who fiercely resisted foreign domination. Their cultural legacy remains an integral part of Chile’s identity, despite centuries of marginalization. The arrival of Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century marked the beginning of a colonial era characterized by the extraction of natural resources, the establishment of a rigid social hierarchy, and the introduction of European institutions. The colonial economy relied heavily on agriculture, mining, and forced indigenous labor, laying the foundation for economic systems that persisted well into the post-independence period. 
    Chile’s struggle for independence from Spain in the early 19th century was part of the broader wave of liberation movements sweeping across Latin America. Achieving independence in 1818 under the leadership of figures like Bernardo O’Higgins and José de San Martín, Chile faced the daunting task of nation-building. The early republican period was marked by political instability and power struggles between conservative and liberal factions, each advocating different visions for Chile’s future.

    Populism has become one of the most significant political phenomena of the 21st century, influencing governance on a global scale. The term "populism" has been used to describe a wide range of political movements, parties, and ideologies, but its meaning often remains fluid and context-dependent. At its core, populism is a political approach that seeks to represent the interests of "the people" against a perceived elite or establishment that is seen as corrupt, self-serving, and out of touch with the common citizen. While this core idea is consistent, the ways in which populism is expressed and implemented vary dramatically depending on the political, cultural, and economic context. 
    The roots of populism stretch back to the 19th century, with early movements advocating for the empowerment of ordinary citizens, particularly in agricultural societies. However, the modern manifestation of populism began to take shape in the mid-20th century and accelerated in the 21st century, fueled by growing disillusionment with traditional political elites. The rise of social media, economic inequality, and a globalized world have all contributed to populism's recent resurgence, particularly in Western democracies. 
    Contemporary populism is often characterized by a charismatic leader who claims to speak directly for the people, bypassing traditional political institutions and sometimes challenging the rule of law. These leaders often portray themselves as outsiders, positioned against the political establishment, and frequently use simple, direct rhetoric that resonates with disaffected voters. The populist narrative, which pits the common people against the elite, is one of the most powerful tools in shaping public opinion and driving political discourse.

    Less rush. More freedom. A way to love writing again.  
    If modern indie publishing feels like a high-stress race to the bottom, the good news is there’s another way. 
    Most authors start writing for the love of it, but in recent years the reality of “writing for a living” has soured. Now, for a lot of us, it no longer looks fun — or creatively fulfilling — at all. 
    You have to obey genres exactly or your books won’t sell. If you step outside your lane and try something new, the kinds of readers most authors court will never buy it. And then there’s the SPEED of it all: The rules of “Rapid Release” say you have to publish a book every month — at least — or you’ll never survive. Forget about taking a vacation. Time off will let the algorithms forget you. 
    In The Artisan Author, industry veteran Johnny B. Truant offers an alternative to Rapid Release: a new way to succeed as an author without sacrificing your freedom, worrying about competition or AI, or fearing you’ll lose everything when the winds — or the algorithms — inevitably change. 
    The way of the Artisan Author is the opposite of Rapid Release. Instead of rushing to churn out the same-old same-old, Artisans follow their muse and write whatever they want. Instead of stressing out, Artisans take their time, putting as much care and beauty into their work as they desire. It’s a way to build a substantial, sustainable, bulletproof income based on Kevin Kelly’s idea of “1000 True Fans”: readers who are loyal to you, not any platform. True Fans are all you need to earn as much as you want as an author. They’re people with whom you build genuine human connections … and who therefore love you enough to spend far more than ordinary readers will ever spend.
