Ich heiße Shannon Maldonado und bin die Gründerin von Yaoi, einem Geschenkeladen, der auf Kunstwerke und handgefertigte Objekte spezialisiert ist. Meine Wahl fiel auf Shopify, weil Shopify im Vergleich zu den anderen Plattformen, die ich getestet habe, mit am benutzerfreundlichsten war. Ich habe vor allem an die Zukunft gedacht. Alle Tools, die für die Auswertung von Verkaufszahlen wichtig sind, zum Beispiel von Lagerbeständen, findet man direkt im Dashboard. Starte jetzt einen kostenlosen Test auf Shopify.com. Welcome to the History Extra Podcast.
Fascinating historical conversations from the makers of BBC History Magazine. From US tariffs on imports. A retaliatory action from other nations. There's been a lot of talk about trade wars in recent weeks.
But can history offer up anything to enlighten the current situation? Yeah. Matt Elton caught up with Frank Trentman, Professor of History at Birkbeck University of London, to find out. Frank, thank you so much for being with me today to talk about tariffs and trade wars, subjects that have been in the headlines a lot recently. It's a fast moving situation. We're not here to talk about the current affairs side of it, but to look back at some of the history of this. What do you think? is the earliest historical example that comes to mind when you've been reading these headlines.
