Hamilton Unbound: Finance and the Creation of the American RepublicBloomsbury Academic, 30.08.2002 - 248 Seiten Modern financial theories enable us to look at old problems in early American Republic historiography from new perspectives.

Transcending the ongoing debates over the prevalence of either community or capitalism in early America, Wright offers fresh and compelling arguments that illuminate motivations for individual and collective actions, and brings agency back into the historical equation. |
