The study expands on Ferdinand Braudel’s (in: Civilisation matérielle, économie et capitalisme, XV-XVIII siècle, 1979) notion of the importance of door-to-door sales (German: hausieren)as a significant phenomenon of functioning exchange. The notion is then applied to the region of Austrian Silesia at the turn of the 19th and 20th century, i.e. at a time when this trading technique was already in decline but still retained considerable importance owing to the specific economic and social circumstances in the area. The study analyses the territorial and social origins of door-to-door salesmen – Hausierer, the structure of the commodities with which they traded, the everydayness of a door-to-door salesman, and also includes the relevant Austro-Hungarian legislation. It also explains the important part that door-todoor sales played in solving social problems in the region of Silesia, which at the time was threatened with mass poverty.

The study focuses on the characteristic features of the history of the Silesian company “Tlach und Keil”, which was established in Opava (Troppau) in 1809 as a family business by the Prussian-Silesian merchants Vinzenz Tlach and Vinzenz Keil, both originally from Ratibor (now Racibórz). The author traces over a hundred years of the company’s history, which began as a small-scale ironworking operation (Ondřejovice, Endersdorf) and became the first producer in the Habsburg monarchy to introduce technology for rolling iron, copper, zinc and galvanized sheet metal (1821). Having achieved considerable success with this type of production, the firm was transformed by its third generation of owners into two joint-stock companies (‘Mährisch-schlesische Aktien-Gesellschaft für Drahtindustrie’ and ‘Aktiengesellschaft der österreichisch-ungarischen Zinkwalzwerke’). The article traces the changing business strategies and mentalities of three generations of the family: the first generation was still strongly influenced by the value systems and principles of traditional family businesses, and it was not until the second and third generations that the company began to orient itself¨ towards the principles of the capitalist market economy based on competition. These aspects of the company are compared with generally formulated and widely accepted observations on the characteristic features of family businesses (J. Kocka and others).

The edition of the fragment of the reminiscences of the Czech economic historian Prof. Arnošt Klíma about the participation of Czech and Slovak historians at the World Economic History Congress in Stockholm in 1960. Within the frame of the so-called great themes, an only major report entrusted to East European historians was presented by Macůrek and Klíma – a report about the transition from feudalism to capitalism. On the eve of the congress was held the first international meeting of economic historians during which the foundations for the creation of IEHA (International Economic History Association) and the periodically held World Economic History Congress were laid.
