Description

Explore the evolving history of British economic and military structures with this scholarly work from Routledge. This volume examines the concept of the 'fiscal-military state' originally popularized by John Brewer in 1989. While the model became a standard for historians of eighteenth-century England, it has remained a subject of debate and discussion. This collection of essays provides a deep look into recent historical research that challenges the traditional model. Readers will find detailed analysis regarding fiscal structures and the roles of military and naval contractors. The book also explores how these systems developed in parallel across Scotland and Ireland, placing them within a much wider political context. Through a historiographical introduction, the text situates the study of 'the sinews of power' within the broader academic field. This book is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the complex relationship between finance, governance, and warfare during this transformative period in British history.
