English summary: Many economic developments in Europe date back to the Middle Ages – for example, the emergence of the banking and insurance systems, and cashless payments. Issues of economic history, however, are usually given little space in introductions to medieval history. This third volume of a series of introductions to economic history, spanning several time periods, closes this gap. Sebastian Steinbach not only provides a concise overview of the economics of the Middle Ages in Europe, but also discusses research issues such as the commercial revolution, publishing, and the agricultural depression of the late Middle Ages. Lively and informative, it refutes the idea that the Middle Ages represented a period of economic stagnation. With interpretations of many different sources, Steinbach also indicates the way in which insights into economic history are obtained. German description: Viele Weichen der aktuellen okonomischen Entwicklung Europas wurden bereits im Mittelalter gestellt, doch in den Einfuhrungswerken zur Mittelalterlichen Geschichte nehmen wirtschaftshistorische Fragestellungen nur einen kleinen Raum ein. Der dritte Band der epochenubergreifenden Reihe zur Einfuhrung in die Wirtschaftsgeschichte will diese Lucke fullen. Entlang der Bereiche Landwirtschaft, Handwerk und Handel entwirft das Buch ein facettenreiches Bild mittelalterlicher Okonomie, erganzt um kompakte Kapitel zu Klima, Bevolkerung, Munzpragung und Geldwirtschaft sowie Technik und Infrastruktur. Sebastian Steinbach bietet einen pragnanten und informativen Uberblick zur europaischen Wirtschaft zwischen dem 6. und 15. Jahrhundert.
