At the beginning students are expected to understand why they should learn history, and to acquire the knowledge of the feudal society in Europe and the development of commercial institutions in the medieval trade. In order to gain some significant insight for nowadays under-developed countries students should also pay particular heed to the process of industrialization from a comparative viewpoint.
