Welcome to the Commodities and Culture website!

We are a Leverhulme-funded International Network, composed of scholars studying commodities and culture in the period between 1851 and 1914. We are interested in trans-national flows of goods and people, ideas and technologies, and the transformations of local cultures that this movement brought about.

The network will meet at three workshops in 2010 and 2011 and will continue its discussions online through this website.
