Abstract

The economic history of the United States is that of Europeans and their institutions. Indigenous nations are absent. This absence is partly due to a lack of data but perhaps also to a perception that Indigenous communities contributed little to U.S. growth. Three case studies explore the economic complexity and social stratification across different nations/regions prior to contact. Migrants to the United States came not to an empty land but one with settled agriculture, complex production processes, and extensive trade relations, upon which Europeans built.
《他们建立的国家:1492年以前北美地区充满活力和复杂的土著经济
美国的经济史就是欧洲人及其制度的经济史。没有土著民族。这种缺失部分是由于缺乏数据,但也可能是由于人们认为土著社区对美国经济增长贡献不大。三个案例研究探讨了接触前不同国家/地区的经济复杂性和社会分层。来到美国的移民来到的不是一片空旷的土地,而是一片有固定农业、复杂生产过程和广泛贸易关系的土地,欧洲人在此基础上建立了自己的家园。
