De economie in het ancien régime had te kampen met grote onzekerheden. In een wereld van onstabiele markten, zwakke financiële instellingen en de afwezigheid van echte regulering speelde krediet een cruciale rol. In dit boek wordt onderzocht op welke manier kleine producenten en winkeliers in de vroegmoderne periode een antwoord hebben trachten te vinden op de altijd aanwezige 'kredietcrisis'. Hierbij wordt krediet niet enkel als een financiële techniek en economisch fenomeen bestudeerd, maar is er tevens getracht de traditionele schotten tussen de sociaal-economische en de cultuur- en mentali |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
"The tragedy of the left is that, having achieved an unprecedented victory in helping stop an appalling war, it then proceeded to commit suicide." So writes Todd Gitlin about the aftermath of the Vietnam War in this collection of writings that calls upon intellectuals on the left to once again engage American public life and resist the trappings of knee-jerk negativism, intellectual fads, and political orthodoxy. Gitlin argues for a renewed sense of patriotism based on the ideals of sacrifice, tough-minded criticism, and a willingness to look anew at the global role of the United States in the aftermath of 9/11. Merely criticizing and resisting the Bush administration will not do-the left must also imagine and propose an America reformed.Where then can the left turn? Gitlin celebrates the work of three prominent postwar |

intellectuals: David Riesman, C. Wright Mills, and Irving Howe. Their ambitious, assertive, and clearly written works serve as models for an intellectual engagement that forcefully addresses social issues and remains affirmative and comprehensive. Sharing many of the qualities of these thinkers' works, Todd Gitlin's blunt, frank analysis of the current state of the left and his willingness to challenge orthodoxies pave the way for a revival in leftist thought and a new liberal patriotism. |
