Add to basketHardback. Condition: New. A fascinating retelling of the first banking and financial collapse in eighteenth-century France. The Scottish economist John Law has been described as the architect of modern central banking. His "System," established in Regency France between 1716 and 1720, saw the founding of a bank issuing paper money and the establishment of state commercial and colonial enterprises aimed at consolidating public debt. What at first seemed like financial wizardry, however, resulted in rampant speculation and, ultimately, economic collapse. In The Politics of Utopia, historian Arnaud Orain offers a provocative rereading of this well-known episode. Starting his story in the seventeenth century, Orain reconstructs the figures and ideas, long predating Law, that anticipated and laid the groundwork for the System, which, he argues, is best understood as a failed social utopia aimed at the total transformation of society. Overturning familiar narratives of this seismic event, this book rewrites a stunning chapter in economic history by dealing with the cultural, colonial, religious, and political dimensions of the (in)famous System up to the French Revolution, revealing new lessons for today's fraught financial landscape.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. Contrairement à ce que l on a cru jusqu ici, le « système » mis en place en France sous la régence du duc d Orléans n a pas été un accident provoqué par un génie solitaire, l Écossais John Law. Il ne se résume en rien à une expérience financière qui se serait soldée par l échec du billet de banque et la dérive spéculative. Dans une relecture complète de cet épisode célèbre, Arnaud Orain révèle l incroyable ambition du « système » qui visait à mettre en place un contrôle total de l appareil d État sur l activité économique. Au carrefour des utopies et des rêves coloniaux élaborés depuis la fin du xviie siècle, grâce à une intense propagande faisant du « système » un conte merveilleux, ce grand Léviathan devait modifier intégralement l organisation sociale du royaume et répondre à la montée inquiétante du libéralisme. Son écho allait traverser le siècle des Lumières jusqu au grand orage de 1789.
