This book is an innovative collection of essays by a new generation
of British and American historians and political theorists. Moving
beyond a conventional action/reaction view of capitalism and its
critics, the volume explores how critical traditions and beliefs
have helped to shape capitalism. Chapters follow diverse critiques
in Britain and America and explore their Atlantic and imperial
exchanges. The volume includes chapters on questions of law and
property in the Victorian empire; traditions of land reform in
nineteenth century America and Britain; the influence of American
romanticism on British socialism; the role of Britain in American
progressivism; American and British consumer protection; the
evolution of trusteeship and ideas of cosmopolitan democracy; the
'third way' and narratives of globalization. The editors'
introduction offers a critical historiographical survey and, by
stepping beyond the dogmatic opposition between post-modernists and
empiricists, provides a new research agenda for an integrated study
of capitalism and its critics.
