This podcast was generated by NotebookLM based on the research article named " Winds from the East: ignored ancient Asian views on international trade and traders" by Kim Tùng Đào & Peter A. G. van Bergeijk published on the Contemporary Social Science Journal of the Academy of Social Sciences in 2024.
The paper examines how ancient Asian philosophies—Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Legalism, and Islam—viewed international trade and merchants, contrasting them with Western perspectives. The authors argue that existing economic thought is overly Eurocentric, neglecting the diverse ancient Asian viewpoints. They analyze how these philosophies shaped attitudes toward trade, highlighting significant differences in the perceived status of merchants and the desirability of international commerce. The study concludes that incorporating these non-Western perspectives is crucial for a more complete understanding of global economic relationships. The authors support their analysis with references to primary and secondary sources and demonstrate the long-lasting influence of these ancient beliefs on contemporary trade policies.
