Historicizing Economic Growth: An Overview of Recent Works
In this historiographical review, I analyse recent works on the history of economic growth and provide a starting point for thinking about how this literature fits together as a discrete field of research. The questions being asked in these texts are relatively new, and as of yet no attempt has been made to identify the major themes that are driving this research. In putting these works into dialogue with each other, across the disciplinary bound…
Industrial French food and its critics
The shift to an industrialised agricultural system, designed to support an ever-expanding number of consumers with an ever-diminishing number of producers, is without question one of the most impor
Gérard Chastagnaret. Des fumées et de sang: Pollution minière et massacre de masse, Andalousie, XIXesiècle
On February 4, 1888, in a mining town in Andalusia, approximately two hundred unarmed and nonviolent men, women, and children were gunned down by the Spanish Civil Guard. The government in Madrid had recently upheld the legal authority of individual municipalities to challenge the mining companies that were processing copper ore by open-air burning, a practice that had led to widespread air pollution and water contamination. Neighboring residents…
Manufacturing a Multifunctional Countryside
Rural France was instrumental to the experience of les trente glorieuses. Not only did rural France fuel economic growth and urbanization through increases in agricultural efficiency, but it also served as an imaginary counterpoint to the hustle and bustle of a new mass consumer society. In the first two decades of the postwar period, a productivist logic of agricultural output dominated rural land use policy. By the 1970s, however, after experie…
History for Sale: The International Art Market and the Nation State
In April of 2003 the collection of André Breton, one of the founders of Surrealism, was auctioned off at the Hôtel Druout in Paris. This article focuses on how the sale sparked a heated debate about the French state's role as the protector of French cultural patrimony and looks at the different interests involved, from Breton's daughter, who authorised the sale, to the Minister of Culture. Ultimately, the author argues that the state allowed the …
