Though abortive, this experiment left a legacy in the political science articulated both by its champions, John Milton, Marchamont Nedham, and James Harrington, and by its sometime opponent and ultimate supporter, Thomas Hobbes. This volume examines these four thinkers, situates them with regard to the novel species of republicanism first championed in the early 1500s by Niccolò Machiavelli, and examines the debt that he and they owed the Epicurean tradition in philosophy and the political science crafted by the Arab philosophers Alfarabi, Avicenna, and Averroës.Against Throne & AltarRepublicanismGreat BritainHistory17th centuryGreat BritainPolitics and government1649-1660Great BritainHistoryCommonwealth and Protectorate, 1649-1660RepublicanismHistory320.092/241Rahe Paul Anthony205022UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910821419303321Against throne and altar3998329UNINA03666nam 22005895 450 991042704070332120230810233633.09789811567438981156743310.1007/978-981-15-6743-8(CKB)4100000011515498(MiAaPQ)EBC6380897(DE-He213)978-981-15-6743-8(PPN)253974658(Perlego)3481826(EXLCZ)99410000001151549820201023d2020 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAircraft Valuation Airplane Investments as an Asset Class /by David Yu1st ed. 2020.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2020.1 online resource (XXXVII, 332 p. 160 illus.) 9789811567421 9811567425 Includes bibliographical references and index.1.

Airplanes are an absolutely crucial but capital-intensive component of the global economy.
