Freedom and Capitalism in Early Modern Europe

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the concepts of Mercantilism and Cameralism, this book reinterprets their roles as foundational elements of modern capitalism rather than mere oppositions to it. It delves into intellectual and conceptual history, particularly during the Renaissance, to construct a narrative that positions these political economies as crucial stepping stones in the evolution of capitalism, especially in Britain. This work is geared towards academics and students interested in economic history, capitalism, and the development of economic thought.
