Commerce and its Discontents in Eighteenth-Century French Political Thought
Terjanian, Anoush Fraser (East Carolina University)
The roots of modern commerce and the origins of economics are usually traced to Adam Smith and his alleged celebration of free trade. Questioning this conventional story, Anoush Fraser Terjanian uncovers ambivalence towards commerce in eighteenth-century France and offers a new perspective on the connections between political economy, imperialism and the Enlightenment.
