＜Abstract＞
　If we aim to understand why the Dutch East India company (VOC) went into decline, we need to move beyond the conventional story of European monopoly companies and colonial empires. There is evidence that the VOC became more liberal towards private trade, indicating a complex relationship between its monopoly and its employees and subjects. Its tea and textiles were smuggled across Europe by merchants from other countries, indicating the fluidity of trade across borders and boundaries.
　Trade statistics have helped establish new connections between the rise of the British and Dutch colonial empires in Asia, textile production in India, the commercialization of tea production in China on the one hand, and the popularization of Asian consumption goods in Europe, the American Revolution and the Industrial Revolution on the other.
　New ways of calculation allow new and subtler insights into links between Asia and Europe; for example into the extent to which a drain of wealth existed after the establishment of British colonial empire and how it evolved over time. VOC trade statistics can also be related to changes in the weather, particularly periods of drought, which allow for less Eurocentric explanations for widespread social conflict on the island of Java.
