Atlantis Restored
After success in the Thirty Years' War, elites in Sweden realized that the nation had to establish a new economic base to support its newfound geopolitical prominence. Drawing on the Pan-European natural-knowledge-based political economy, Swedish reformers developed a version uniquely applicable to the nation's challenges and opportunities. At the center of this new political economy was the use of scientific knowledge to transform nature into us…
The British Lions Crouched to a Nest of Owls
The South Sea Bubble is one of history's most iconic economic events. While much ink was spilled during the bubble year to make sense of events as they unfolded, commentators were left scrambling for ways to grasp what happened because no one had ever experienced a stock market bubble before. This article focuses on how the London press covered the events that later became known as the South Sea Bubble. A review of every newspaper article in whic…
The Magnificent Spruce
After its success in the Thirty Years' War, Sweden harbored ambitions to establish an empire. To sustain its efforts, statesmen realized the need to generate more domestic wealth. The ensuing debates gave rise to an improvement discourse, centered on the harnessing of Sweden's abundant natural resources. While most improvement writers were patronized by the state and offered state-centered analyses, the protagonist of this essay, Anders Kempe (16…
A Philosopher's Economist
Reconsiders the centrality and legacy of Hume’s economic thought and serves as an important springboard for reflections on the philosophical underpinnings of economics. Although David Hume’s contributions to philosophy are firmly established, his economics has been largely overlooked. A Philosopher’s Economist offers the definitive account of Hume’s “worldly philosophy” and argues that economics was a central preoccupation of his life and work. M…
David Hume’s Political Philosophy
David Hume begins his elaboration on political philosophy by establishing that private property and markets are the foundational conventions of a commercial society. By providing a convincing philosophical argument for the legitimacy of commerce, Hume doubtlessly hoped to contribute to the acceleration of commercial modernization. In addition to focusing on the historically specific conventions of private property, markets, and money, the Treatis…
An Age of Risk
Early modern Britain was a risky place. Disease, inclement weather, harvest failure, war, crime, rebellions and commerce exposed people to uncertainty on a daily basis, generating high levels of an
Istvan Hont. Politics in Commercial Society
When Istvan Hont passed away in 2013, he was engaged in a project examining how Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Adam Smith, Immanuel Kant, and Karl Marx theorized the relationship between commerce and politics. This panoramic project would have provided scholars with new ways of interrogating the commonalities between these rather disparate thinkers. Although we will never know what such a book might have looked like, thanks to Béla Kapossy and Michael So…

Casualties of Credit
Modern credit, developed during the financial revolution of 1620–1720, laid the foundation for England’s political, military, and economic dominance in the eighteenth century. Possessed of a generally circulating credit currency, a modern national debt, and sophisticated financial markets, England developed a fiscal–military state that instilled fear in its foes and facilitated the first industrial revolution. Yet a number of casualties followed …
The Role of Political Economy in Hume’s Moral Philosophy
Hume insisted that property serve as the foundation of society because it best promotes the greatest amount of industry and therefore contributes to public utility. Industry thus plays a central role in Hume’s theory of justice. Given that Hume extensively discussed the social, political, cultural, and moral implications of industry in the Political Discourses , I suggest that Hume’s economic writings should be understood as an integral part of h…
Retrospectives
David Hume (1711-1776) is arguably the most esteemed philosopher to have written in the English language. During his lifetime, however, Hume was as well if not better known for his contributions to political economy, particularly for the essays published as the Political Discourses (1752). Hume left his mark on the economic thought of the physiocrats, the classical economists, and the American Federalists. Adam Smith, who met Hume circa 1750, was…

The Death Penalty as Monetary Policy
In the 1690s during the financial revolution, clipping and counterfeit- ing emerged as serious threats to England's commercial base and its bid to become a global power. The damaging impact of clipping and prompted John Locke ((1696) 1991a, 472) to declare that money manipulations have contributed more to Sink us, than all the Force of our Enemies could do. Counterfeiting challenged the general confidence in the exchangeability of money and conse…
David Hume’s Monetary Theory Revisited
David Hume's monetary theory has been controversial since its formulation. Lately, the focus has been on Hume's alleged misapplication of the quantity theory of money. While he appears to subscribe to a simple quantity theory with money neutrality, in a famously contested passage in the essay Of Money, he violates the neutrality condition by claiming that an increase in the money stock has favorable output effects. While most commentators argue a…

The Labor Theory of Value and the strategic role of alienation
In order to avoid reifying Marx's social theory, it is important to focus on the social relations that Marx's analytical categories denote. By focusing on value formation as the process of reproducing social control, the imposition of alienation takes on a richer meaning. Not only is alienation a process of human degradation, it is also a strategic instrument in the valorization process
