Its history is epitomized by the life and works of the brothers Johan (1622-1660) and Pieter de la Court (1618-1685), two successful textile entrepreneurs and radical republican theorists during the apex of Dutch primacy in world trade. This book explores the many facets of the brothers’ political thought, focusing on their ground-breaking argument that commerce forms the mainstay of republican politics. With a contextual analysis that highlights the interaction between thinking and acting, between intellectual and cultural history, the book reveals the international significance of this commercial republicanism and it proposes a novel, rhetorical approach to seventeenth-century Dutch political culture.Studies in the history of political thought ;v. 7.RepublicanismNetherlandsHistory17th centuryMerchantsPolitical activityNetherlandsHistory17th centuryPolitical cultureNetherlandsHistory17th centuryPolitical scienceNetherlandsHistory17th centuryEconomicsNetherlandsHistory17th centuryNetherlandsPolitics and government1648-1795NetherlandsCommercial policyNetherlandsIntellectual life17th centurycitizenshipfree speechpolitical economyrepublicanismdutch golden agetolerationfree tradecommercerhetoricLeidenPieter de la CourtThomas HobbesRepublicanismHistoryMerchantsPolitical activityHistoryPolitical cultureHistoryPolitical scienceHistoryEconomicsHistory321.8/6Weststeijn Arthur801302MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996199881103316Commercial Republicanism in the Dutch Golden Age1802644UNISA
