Series: Contributions to Economics

This book will take the reader on a journey through the economic thought of Europe, spanning from ancient Greece to the modern day. It explores the economic ideas of the 27 European Union countries, the United Kingdom and Norway, across history.

By presenting 500 important quotes, the book offers a better understanding of Europe's economic landscape and serves as a guide that invites readers to explore in more detail the quoted sources. It displays the common socio-economic threads that bind European nations over millennia, transcending artificial divisions imposed by history. From ancient Greece to the reunification post-Berlin Wall, the book enables readers to explore the continuous European economic evolution.

The book will appeal to students and scholars of economics, as well as a wider audience, interested in a better understanding of how quotes and economic ideas from the past shape a future with aspirations, such as for the freedom of enterprise, for a market economy based on competition, for the fight against corruption, for a fair distribution of wealth, and an economy at the service of mankind.
