  • Entrepreneurs as Aristocrats

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    This chapter aims to measure the extent to which new men of wealth and their families became gentrified. Social or cultural gentrification can be intuitively and subjectively detected but cannot be objectively verified and measured. Gentrification in the traditional sense of the acquisition of landed estates and country houses by new men and their families can, however, be tested and measured through evidence of landownership. The size and value …

  • Aristocrats as Entrepreneurs

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    This chapter challenges the view that the landed aristocracy as a social group were inherently anti-business, anti-industrial, and anti-commercial. Instead it argues that there have always been different aristocratic groups with different sets of values and different influences on the rest of society. Historians have tended to focus on the idle, profligate, dissolute, and pleasure-seeking aristocratic men and women, and their mistresses, a group …

  • Gentlemanly Values, Education, and the Industrial Spirit

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    It has been strongly maintained, most influentially by Corelli Barnett and Martin Wiener, that public schools and the older universities carry a heavy responsibility for the disappointing performance of the British economy since the 1850s. The argument is that the sons of businessmen were ‘emasculated into gentlemen’ at public schools, extinguishing their industrial spirit, a form of cultural gentrification confirmed at Oxford and Cambridge if th…

  • Conclusion

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    Lawrence Stone believed he had proved that no more than minimal gentrification, in the strict sense of acquisition of country houses by new men of wealth, took place between 1540 and 1880. Unfortunately this conclusion rested on an elementary error in interpretation of his statistics, which actually showed that one-third of the owners of his sample of country houses were businessmen-purchasers. Gentrification on this scale occurred during the yea…

  • Entrepreneurial Culture and the Culture of Entrepreneurs

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    After examining different senses in which the concepts of the enterprise culture and the industrial spirit have been employed it is argued that the version that portrays the single-minded pursuit of profit and the accumulation of wealth as their essential ingredients is a polemical weapon of radical critics of industrialisation and philistinism, and does not fit the actual behaviour and values of the most prominent and successful British business…

  • Posing the Problem

    F M L ThompsonCHAPTERGentrification and the enterprise…2001

    This chapter examines and analyses the range of explanations on offer for the motivations of entrepreneurs who have spearheaded economic growth since the 17th century. Contemporaries from Daniel Defoe and Adam Smith through to Richard Cobden—and indeed Jeremy Paxman in our own day—have observed that successful businessmen seek to acquire country properties. This has been challenged as empirically untrue. It has also provided the basis for the the…

  • Gentrification and the Enterprise Culture

    F M L ThompsonBOOKGentrification and the enterprise…2001Citada por: 262

    "The long-running debate of Britain's apparent economic decline in the last 120 years has generated a large economic and statistical literature and a great deal of heat in rival social and cultural explanations. The 'decline' has been confidently attributed to the permeation of the business elite by the anti-industrial and anti-commercial attitudes communicated by public schools and the old universities through their propagation of aristocratic a…

    By hook or by crook, sometimes by both at the same time, great landowners, and many of the not so great, have survived into the final decade of the twentieth century. Some of the survivors are, no doubt, clinging on by their fingernails, huddled over a single-bar electric fire in a damp and draughty room of a family mansion that is slowly crumbling over their heads, living on baked beans and memories in the manner of an A. S. Byatt novel. Many, h…

    An ultra-slow motion serial whose episodes appear at intervals of twelve months needs a recapitulation of the story so far, however excellent the retentive capacity of scholars in comparison with soap opera audiences. The characters in question are the landowners, great and not so great, and the landed families who were already wellestablished on their estates and in their country houses in late Victorian Britain: and also the newcomers who have …
