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. 410 0$aStudies in the history of political thought ;$vv. 7. 606 $aRepublicanism$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aMerchants$xPolitical activity$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aPolitical science$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aEconomics$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aNetherlands$xPolitics and government$y1648-1795 607 $aNetherlands$xCommercial policy 607 $aNetherlands$xIntellectual life$y17th century 610 $acitizenship 610 $afree speech 610 $apolitical economy 610 $arepublicanism 610 $adutch golden age 610 $atoleration 610 $afree trade 610 $acommerce 610 $arhetoric 610 $aLeiden 610 $aPieter de la Court 610 $aThomas Hobbes 615 0$aRepublicanism$xHistory 615 0$aMerchants$xPolitical activity$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical science$xHistory 615 0$aEconomics$xHistory 676 $a321.8/6 700 $aWeststeijn$b Arthur$0801302 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996199881103316 996 $aCommercial Republicanism in the Dutch Golden Age$91802644 997 $aUNISA
