Neil Ewins

Neil Ewins is a researcher at the University of Sunderland specializing in the historical and economic dimensions of ceramic production and trade. His work examines Anglo-American ceramic markets from the 18th century to present, with emphasis on globalization impacts, cultural identity in commerce, and Staffordshire ceramics.

Research Focus: Ewins investigates how ceramic marketing strategies evolved in response to global economic shifts, particularly UK industry adaptation to overseas competition. His publications analyze trade networks, consumer preferences, and material culture across centuries, blending historical archaeology with economic theory.

Publication Trends: Recent works (2017-2023) explore globalization's effects on heritage industries, while earlier scholarship (1990s-2010s) established foundational research on transatlantic ceramic trade patterns and merchant networks.
