A History of Money in Asian Perspective
The aim of A History of Gold and Money is modestly stated as an attempt ‘to provide some clarification of the problems which historically money has raised’. A History of Gold and Money is precisely that. Vilar sets out to explain the role of precious metals by describing the history of their use as a monetary medium from ‘primitive’ and ‘Ancient’ times up to the early twentieth century. A wide range of explanations can be assessed and an archaeol…

The Material and the Cultural: An Attempt to Transcend the Present Impasse
The Pontiff has engulfed the Emperor, has joined in his pontifical staff the imperial sword. And the result: both Empire and Church go ill because united in one hand they cease to fear each other' (Kantorowicz, 'Dante's Two Suns', 218
Monetary Revolution and Societal Change in the Late Medieval and Early Modern Times—A Review Article
Precious Metals in the Later Medieval and Early Modern Worlds , edited by J. F. Richards, is a courageous attempt to survey late medieval and early modern monetary history on an appropriately global scale, while simultaneously representing the fragmentation of the present state of knowledge on the subject. Asian history has been particularly subject to an a priori compartmentalization that has hindered comparison and prevented appreciation of the…
Concepts of order and comparison, with a diversion on counter ideologies and corporate institutions in late pre‐ colonial India

State Formation Reconsidered
Thispaper is exclusively concerned with developing broader conceptions of state and state-formation in pre-colonial India, and thus with problems of synthesizing diverse elements separately discussed and researched in the literature. It seeks to argue that certain critical aspects of the development of state and society in the long term have been neglected with serious consequences for overall conceptions and expectations
Scrutinizing which moment: A comment on Geoff Eley, ‘The social history of industrialization: ‘proto-industry’ and the origins of capitalism’, Economy and Society, XIII, 1984, 519–539
Proto-industrialization (PI) is a concept introduced several years ago to explain a number of paradoxical aspects of the pre-history of industrialization: in a word the remarkable growth of labour-intensive, low technology handwork for distant markets, dispersed in countless rural households throughout large regions of west, central and eastern Europe. Without disputing the facts themselves, the concept has been subjected to vigorous and serious …
Growth of money economy and some questions of transition in late pre-colonial India
One of the more remarkable but neglected features of the growth of commercial capitalism on an international scale from the sixteenth century consists of widespread processes of monetization affecting a number of Asian societies, and especially India. This was in turn connected with commercialization of both agrarian and urban economy, and the development of markets and manufactures. By the middle of the eighteenth century, this development had b…

Of white whale and countrymen in the eighteenth-century Maratha Deccan. extended class relations, rights, and the problem of rural autonomy under the old regime1
The problem is simply stated, but resists solution. We begin with the classical historiographic images of Old Regime societies of South Asia and suggest that beneath the surface of abstract formulations for and against these images, unrecognised difficulties of assumption and method allow them to persist in the contemporary imagination. This not only hampers understanding of historic societies, taken individually, but prevents proper assessment o…
