On July 2, 1812, Captain David Porter raised a banner on the USS Essex proclaiming A free trade and sailors rights, thus creating a political slogan that explained the War of 1812.

It was a contest for the ideals of the American Revolution bringing together both the high culture of the Enlightenment to...

Road to Mobocracy
ISBN: 9780807841983 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Road to Mobocracy is the first major study of public disorder in New York City from the Revolutionary period through the Jacksonian era. During that time, the mob lost its traditional, institutional role as corporate safety valve and social corrective, tolerated by public officials. It became autonomous, a violent menace to individual and public good expressing the discordant urges and fears of a pluralistic society. Indeed, it tested the premises of democratic government.

Wages of Independence: Capitalism in the Early American Republic
ISBN: 9780945612520 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. America between the Revolution and the Civil War was a society in full adolescence. Vibrant, cocky, feeling its own strength, and ready to take on the world, America was driven by an upstart economy and a capitalist bravado. The early republic, argues Paul Gilje in his cogent introduction, was the crucial period in the development of that trademark characteristic of American society--modern capitalism. In this collection of essays, eight social and economic historians consider the rise of capitalism in the early American republic. Expanding upon traditional interpretations of economic...
