This bibliography covers publications that appeared during 1999. It follows previous criteria, being divided into two broad areas: general literature in financial history in section 1, and specialised material in section 2. Section 2 is subdivided chronologically and, further, by geographical area (the complete classification scheme was published in Volume 1, Part 2, October 1994, pp. 157–60.) Where there are no entries for a particular section, the heading has been omitted. Abbreviations have been kept to a minimum, but standard abbreviations such as J. for Journal, Q. for Quarterly, or Rev. for Review/Revue, have been used throughout. Short titles are used for references to edited volumes within the section in which they are listed; elsewhere they are cited in full. Articles published in books ‘edited by’ are mentioned only if the bibliographer accessed the index of the book before the deadline of the publication. Doctoral theses and Working Papers are not included.
