In the seventeenth century, English economic theorists lost interest in the moral status of exchange and became increasingly concerned with the roots of national prosperity. This shift marked the origins of classical political economy and provided the foundation for the contemporary discipline of economics. Emily Erikson brings together historical, comparative, and computational methods to explain the institutional forces that brought about this transformation. $35.00 / £30.00 paper 978-0-231-18435-9 $140.00 / £108.00 cloth 978-0-231-18434-2 2021 312 pages 40 illus.
