Description

Explore the evolution of social solidarity and fraternity in this academic study by Routledge. Guild and State examines how medieval guilds and city-communes shaped socioeconomic attitudes and theories of the state. By analyzing chronicles, charters, and reported slogans, the text reveals what ordinary guildsmen and townsmen thought about these fundamental social issues. This work traces the development of attitudes toward organized labor from early Germanic times to modern trade unions. It makes a necessary distinction between popular ethos and learned philosophy, providing a clear look at how traditional corporate organization of labor influenced European history. Covering the period from the twelfth to the seventeenth century, this book is a deep dive into the history of European political thought and the structures that defined social life.
