The Economy of Liechtenstein

The Economy of Liechtenstein: A Special Exhibition at the Liechtenstein NationalMuseum. Liechtenstein ranks today among the most highly industrialised countries in the world. Its financial centre operates on a global scale, and the number of jobs significantly exceeds the number of residents. Such economic strength makes it easy to overlook that, until the mid-twentieth century, the country was largely agrarian. The transformation since then has been swift and profound. This special exhibition traces that remarkable shift. It explores the forces of economic change while foregrounding the people who experienced and shaped it – navigating opportunity, uncertainty and responsibility. Through filmed testimonies and historical perspectives, the exhibition reveals how deeply economic development is intertwined with individual lives and working realities
