Descriere

Early modern England had a distinctive preoccupation with the social responsibilities of private businesses. Koji Yamamoto explores for the first time how promises of public service in the economic sphere came to be abused, and how statesmen, playwrights, petitioners, and merchants responded to such perversions of promised public service.
