Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Kapossy argues that some of the most powerful and insightful criticism of Rousseau came from his Swiss contemporaries. He surveys eighteenth-century Swiss republican responses to Rousseau's political thought, especially by Basle's secretary of state, the noted political philosopher Isaak Iselin. Kapossy shows that the core of the Rousseau and Iselin dialogue consisted of their respective assessments of whether Swiss republican city-states should or should not adjust to the changing economic and political realities of Enlightenment Europe. Like other Swiss reformers, Iselin feared that Switzerland would be left behind in the race to modernise unless the Swiss could find ways to benefit from the positive side of recent developments of the European economy and to avoid its drawbacks. These reformers were sympathetic to Rousseau's moral critique of commercial society but failed to appreciate, or even to comprehend, his vision of Switzerland's future. Iselin himself considered Rousseau as a corrosive sceptic and rejected his theory of the general will as a Hobbesian idea and impractical to boot. Iselin's first book, The Patriotic and Philosophical Dreams of a Friend of Mankind (1755), laid bare the contradiction between Rousseau's denial of the natural sociability of man and his enthusiasm for republican patriotism. The more influential sequel, The History of Mankind (1764), was the most comprehensive republican response and refutation of Rousseau's Discourse on the Origins of Inequality published in the eighteenth century, providing an important and wide-ranging alternative paradigm. Primarily, Iselin presented a new philosophical or conjectural history of human sociability, demonstrating the plausibility of a commercial society based of foundations other than mere institutionalised egoism.Individual Swiss city-state had their own distinct republican traditions and Kapossy shows that it is impossible to understand the full message of Rousseau's Discourse on Inequality without knowing its Swiss, and not only Genevan, republican context. He therefore surveys contemporary republican controversies not only in Basle and Geneva, but also in Zurich and especially in Berne, which was seen in eighteenth-century Europe as a genuinely Machiavellian military republic. Kapossy reconstructs the broad spectrum of eighteenth-century Swiss and European political argument more accurately than any previous commentator of either Rousseau or Iselin. The book does not only alter our view of the Swiss contribution to the political thought of the Enlightenment but also highlights many of the more strikingly sceptical and pessimistic facets of Rousseau's republicanism that less historically and contextually minded interpreters of his thought have overlooked.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Scholars normally emphasize the contrast between the two great eighteenth-century thinkers Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Adam Smith. Rousseau is seen as a critic of modernity, Smith as an apologist. Istvan Hont, however, finds significant commonalities in their work, arguing that both were theorists of commercial society and from surprisingly similar perspectives. In making his case, Hont begins with the concept of commercial society and explains why that concept has much in common with what the German philosopher Immanuel Kant called unsocial sociability. This is why many earlier scholars used to refer to an Adam Smith Problem and, in a somewhat different way, to a Jean-Jacques Rousseau Problem. The two problems and the questions about the relationship between individualism and altruism that they raised were, in fact, more similar than has usually been thought because both arose from the more fundamental problems generated by thinking about morality and politics in a commercial society. Commerce entails reciprocity, but a commercial society also entails involuntary social interdependence, relentless economic competition, and intermittent interstate rivalry. This was the world to which Rousseau and Smith belonged, and Politics in Commercial Society is an account of how they thought about it. Building his argument on the similarity between Smith s and Rousseau s theoretical concerns, Hont shows the relevance of commercial society to modern politics the politics of the nation-state, global commerce, international competition, social inequality, and democratic accountability.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - For many Enlightenment thinkers, discerning the relationship between commerce and peace was the central issue of modern politics. The logic of commerce seemed to require European states and empires to learn how to behave in more peaceful, self-limiting ways. However, as the fate of nations came to depend on the flux of markets, it became difficult to see how their race for prosperity could ever be fully disentangled from their struggle for power. On the contrary, it became easy to see how this entanglement could produce catastrophic results. This volume showcases the variety and the depth of approaches to economic rivalry and the rise of public finance that characterized Enlightenment discussions of international politics. It presents a fundamental reassessment of these debates about 'perpetual peace' and their legacy in the history of political thought.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When István Hont died in 2013, the world lost a giant of intellectual history. A leader of the Cambridge School of Political Thought, Hont argued passionately for a global-historical approach to political ideas. To better understand the development of liberalism, he looked not only to the works of great thinkers but also to their reception and use amid revolution and interstate competition. His innovative program of study culminated in the landmark 2005 book Jealousy of Trade, which explores the birth of economic nationalism and other social effects of expanding eighteenth-century markets. Markets, Morals, Politics brings together a celebrated cast of Hont¿s contemporaries to assess his influence, ideas, and methods.Richard Tuck, John Pocock, John Dunn, Raymond Geuss, Gareth Stedman Jones, Michael Sonenscher, John Robertson, Keith Tribe, Pasquale Pasquino, and Peter N. Miller contribute original essays on themes Hont treated with penetrating insight: the politics of commerce, debt, and luxury; the morality of markets; and economic limits on state power. The authors delve into questions about the relationship between states and markets, politics and economics, through examinations of key Enlightenment and pre-Enlightenment figures in context¿Hobbes, Rousseau, Spinoza, and many others. The contributors also add depth to Hont¿s lifelong, if sometimes veiled, engagement with Marx.The result is a work of interpretation that does justice to Hont¿s influence while developing its own provocative and illuminating arguments. Markets, Morals, Politics will be a valuable companion to readers of Hont and anyone concerned with political economy and the history of ideas.…
