  • “Damned Scoundrels” and “Libertisme of Trade”

    Cathy MatsonCHAPTERColonial America and the Early…2017

    Scholars exploring the changes in colonial commerce and economic culture frequently emphasize the role of importing wholesalers who depended on creditors in London for a variety of commodities, such as the textiles, earthenware, and agricultural implements, that colonists could not produce in sufficient quantity for themselves. Diverse strategies of local labor and household production made it possible for settlers at some distance from port citi…

  • Putting the Lydia to Sea

    Cathy Matson, Cathy Matson Cathy MatsonARTICLEThe William and Mary Quarterly2017

    Compelling portraits of merchant networks that knit together far-flung parts of the Atlantic world tell us only part of the story about the central role of commerce in the early modern era. It is also imperative for historians to explore how the far-reaching communications and markets that merchants knit together depended on the local material economies of port cities—the daily, personal, and local exchanges taking place at all social and occupat…

  • Introduction

    Open AccessCathy MatsonARTICLEThe Business History Review2004Citada por: 3Referencias: 15

    In the half-century following the American Revolution, journalists and promoters of economic activities wrote paeans to the independence movement, celebrating its release of economic energies and anticipating that it would enable citizens to improve, produce, and consume more and thus sustain their virtuous republican character as a people. Writers predicted that imminent prosperity would result in the construction of mills, forges, and retail ne…

  • Republic of Debtors

    Cathy MatsonREVIEWJournal of the Early Republic2003Citada por: 1

    Debt was an inescapable fact of life in early America. At the beginning of the 18th century, its sinfulness was preached by ministers and the right to imprison debtors was unquestioned. By 1800, imprisonment for debt was under attack and insolvency was no longer seen as a moral failure, merely an economic setback. In Republic of Debtors, Bruce H. Mann illuminates this crucial transformation in early American society. From the wealthy merchant to …

  • Merchants and Empire

    Cathy Matson, Cathy D MatsonBOOKMerchants & empire2002

    In Merchants & Empire Cathy Matson examines the attitudes and practices of New York's wholesale merchants, a group that operated beneath the gaze of imperial traders yet made up as much as 80 percent of the mercantile community. She finds them an interesting, if opportunistic, lot - quick to flout authority to their own advantage, but also willing to enjoy the benefits of British imperial protection when it suited them. These merchants succeeded …

  • From British Peasants to Colonial American Farmers

    Cathy Matson, Allan KulikoffARTICLEJournal of American History2002

    for some time Allan Kulikoff has been exploring the synthesis between “market” historians, who emphasize the rapid transformation of colonial North America toward capitalism, and “social” historians, who insist on the persistence of noncapitalist traditions. This new study argues for a composite portrait of the “small farmers” who accounted for “twothirds of colonial families,” drawing from mountains of scholarship produced by both the market and…

    In this work, Herbert E. Sloan examines Thomas Jefferson's complex and obsessive relationship with debt - its role in his life and political career, and in the formation of republican ideology. As party leader in the 1790s, and later as president of the United States, Jefferson led a crusade against public debt, which he felt robbed the people of a future rightly theirs. Yet as a private person he was plagued by debt, never free of it throughout …
