La Monarchie éclairée de l’abbé de Saint-Pierre: Une science politique des Modernes
ISBN: 9781789622225 / Francuski / Miękka / 461 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. L’abbé de Saint-Pierre, connu pour son Projet de paix perpétuelle, a laissé un ensemble bien plus vaste et cohérent d’écrits politiques et moraux jusqu’alors dispersés et partiellement étudiés. Le présent ouvrage, exploitant systématiquement la totalité de l’oeuvre, en propose la complète réévaluation. Dès les premières décennies du XVIIIe siècle, Saint-Pierre promeut une harmonisation artificielle des intérêts, assurée par l’intervention politique et s’affirme, avant Bentham, comme l’un des premiers utilitaristes. Il imagine de substituer à la...

Labour Laws in Preindustrial Europe: The Coercion and Regulation of Wage Labour, C.1350-1850
ISBN: 9781783277681 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Explores the variety of legal and regulatory regimes that existed in Western Europe to control labour and how workers experienced those controls. Many economic historians have assumed that labour in Western Europe was 'free' after the end of serfdom in the fifteenth century. These assumptions are increasingly being questioned and labour laws have been identified as creating significant restrictions on workers' freedom.

Multitribal Indians in Search of No Man's Land: The American Expansion and the Chickamaugans Between Resistance and Migration
ISBN: 9783847114659 / Angielski / Twarda / 503 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the American westward expansion, Chickamaugans, originally Cherokees, prioritized resistance to the U.S. government and Euro-American invaders. They signed treaties with Great Britain and Spain. Overlooked by scholars, it was the "diplomatic savvy" of Chickamaugan women and the support of their numerous allies, British loyalists, free persons of color, former slaves, and Native Americans from other nations, that made it possible for Chickamaugan resistance to last from 1775 to 1794. Carla Toney proves that, after the collapse of their resistance, many chose migration, not as...
