  • When the Periphery Became More Central: from Colonial Pact to Liberal Nationalism in Brazil and Mexico, 1800-1914 Steven Topik
    When the Periphery Became More Central: From Colonial Pact to Liberal Nationalism in Brazil and Mexico, 1800-1914 Steven Topik Introduction The Global Economic History Network has concentrated on examining the “Great Divergence” between Europe and Asia, but recognizes that the Americas also played a major role in the development of the world economy. Ken Pomeranz noted, as had Adam Smith, David Ricardo, and Karl Marx before him, the role of the Americas in supplying the silver and gold that Europeans used to purchase Asian luxury goods.1 Smith wrote about the great importance of colonies2. Marx and Engels, writing almost a century later, noted: "The discovery of America, the rounding of the Cape, opened up fresh ground for the rising bourgeoisie. The East-Indian and Chinese markets, the colonisation of America [north and south] trade with the colonies, ... gave to commerce, to navigation, to industry, an impulse never before known. "3 Many students of the world economy date the beginning of the world economy from the European “discovery” or “encounter” of the “New World”) 4 1 Ken Pomeranz, The Great Divergence , Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2000:264- 285) 2 Adam Smith in An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776, rpt. Regnery Publishing, Washington DC, 1998) noted (p. 643) “The colony of a civilized nation which takes possession, either of a waste country or of one so thinly inhabited, that the natives easily give place to the new settlers, advances more rapidly to wealth and greatness than any other human society.” The Americas by supplying silver and “by opening a new and inexhaustible market to all the commodities of Europe, it gave occasion to new divisions of labour and improvements of art….The productive power of labour was improved.” p.

These gold rushes transformed Australia’s population and society. Miners from all over the world left their homes and tried to strike it rich on the Australian goldfields. Most were unlucky, but they all helped shape a defining era of Australian history. A map shows the locations and years of major Australian gold rushes.

Panning… State Library of Victoria, Australia; gift of Mrs. T. Cameron, 1980 (accession no. H84.458/13) Before 1851 the discovery of any gold in the Australian colonies was kept secret. England had established the colonies as penal settlements, places where criminals were sent to live. The colonial governments feared the discovery of gold would lead to an increase in crime or a convict uprising. However, the New South Wales government changed its approach after thousands of people left the colony to head to California in North America for the gold rush of 1848. The loss of colonists caused a shortage of workers and an economic downturn.

  • RHSV Digital Engagement Survey Report 2016 B
    Royal Historical Society of Victoria Digital Engagement Survey Report 1 September 2016 239 A’Beckett Street Melbourne VIC 3000 9326 9288 [email protected] www.historyvictoria.org.au A. Introduction This survey was designed to fill an information gap about the level of digital engagement of the member groups of the RHSV. In particular, we are interested in the proportion of our member groups that are connected to the internet and the software they are using (if any) to catalogue their collections. Groups were also asked other questions such as about their web presence and digitisation projects. The survey was distributed to 304 historical groups. 299 were distributed by email and five were posted to historical groups without an email address. We received 98 responses – a response rate of over 30%. “Surveys that you distribute internally (i.e. to employees) generally have a much higher response rate than those distributed to external audiences (i.e. customers). Internal surveys will generally receive a 30-40% response rate (or more) on average, compared to an average 10- 15% response rate for external surveys.” (Survey Gizmo, 2015) As an external survey, 30% would be a reasonable response rate. This was a free Survey Monkey survey and so there were limitations on the number of questions (and therefor the scope and detail) and on the analysis of data. I have attempted to cross check some information in this report, and if further analysis is required please let me know. I have included some quotes from the survey in italics under the relevant questions, but all the raw data can be accessed here so all comments can be viewed: https://www.surveymonkeysurveymonkeysurveymonkey.com/user/sign-in/ Username: RHSV1909 Password: RHSV1909 Click the link RHSV Affiliated Goups Survey - Digital Engagement Click the Analyse Results tab on the right then scroll down the Question Summaries .

  • The Sovereign Hill Battery
    The Sovereign Hill Battery Sovereign Hill operates a ten-head wooden-framed battery as part of the mining exhibit at the outdoor museum in Ballarat. The most likely source for the battery was the Mount Wills South tin mine in Gippsland. Machinery for the Mount Wills South mine was ordered from the Salisbury Foundry in Tasmania specifically to the design of that used by the Mount Bischoff Company (the Salisbury Foundry being the sole manufacturer of this design of plant in Tasmania).1 By early April 1891 all of the equipment had arrived in Victoria, but was facing difficult roads on its journey to the mine.2 Water was turned onto the large overshot waterwheel on 13 May 1892, and the battery of ten heads was christened ‘The Glen’ in the presence of 200 guests. The estimated yield of metallic tin was expected to be in the region of 5%; rich enough to pay handsomely. When tested, samples of the oxide yielded as high as 70% metallic tin, valuing each ton of oxide at £68.3 Despite the initial optimism, the tin ‘bubble’ was short-lived. In late 1892, five heads of the battery were converted to crush gold-bearing ores for local mines, while the other five crushed tin ore.4 Gold was again on the ascendency, and this change of focus resulted in an upswing in the fortunes of the Company.5 The Company purchased a second-hand portable engine in Omeo and began to split its battery into two halves.6 In mid-1898, a Mr. Williams purchased the plant of the Mount Wills South Tin Mining Company and set about modernising it to treat battery sands by chlorination and cyanide.7 We do not know what happened next to the battery of the Mount Wills South Tin Mining Company.
