Description: |
This volume reviews recent scholarship in the field of the theory of "gentlemanly capitalism" - the complex of economic, social and political power centering on the City of London - which historians have developed to explain Britain's imperial expansion. |
Synopsis: |
The theory of "gentlemanly capitalism", suggested by P.J. Cain and A.G. Hopkins in their two volume study of "British Imperialism" (1688-1914; 1914-1994), caused debate amongst historians of European imperialism and economic history. It is a theory of economic, social and political power centering on the City of London - which historians have developed to explain Britain's imperial expansion has since been expanded, both in its original theory and its implications. This volume reviews the latest state of scholarship in the field and develops it further. |
