Abstract

This paper focuses on the relations between home producers and the merchants in the cities. The latter group lived within the production area and exported linen cloth to distant markets. They took a strong influence on the production methods in the countryside. The market relations between these two unequal groups shall be analysed within the framework of the theory of institutional economics.
