This project aims to examine how movement across borders in eighteenth-century Europe and encounters between artisans from different backgrounds promoted technical innovation in the cities. Mobility to and from Paris suggests that the cosmopolitan city’s society and culture were as important as markets and institutions. The project will study male and female artisans, producers of manufactured goods in the eighteenth century, who played a vital but largely forgotten role in transferring applied knowledge between European centres. This project aims to provide a historical grounding for debates on links between cosmopolitanism, culture, and technical innovation in a globalising world.

这个项目旨在研究18世纪欧洲的跨境流动和来自不同背景的工匠之间的接触如何促进城市的技术创新。往返巴黎的流动性表明，这个国际大都市的社会和文化与市场和制度一样重要。该项目将研究男性和女性工匠，他们是18世纪的制成品生产者，他们在欧洲中心之间转移应用知识方面发挥了至关重要但基本上被遗忘的作用。该项目旨在为全球化世界中世界主义、文化和技术创新之间的联系的辩论提供历史基础。
