Originally published in 1975, The Machiavellian Moment remains a landmark of historical and political thought. Celebrated historian J.G.A. Pocock looks at the consequences for modern historical and social consciousness arising from the ideal of the classical republic revived by Machiavelli and other thinkers of Renaissance Italy. Pocock shows that Machiavelli's prime emphasis was on the moment in which the republic confronts the problem of its own instability in time, which Pocock calls the "Machiavellian moment."
After examining this problem in the works of Machiavelli, Guicciardini, and Giannotti, Pocock turns to the revival of republican ideology in Puritan England and in Revolutionary and Federalist America. He argues that the American Revolution can be considered the last great act of civic humanism of the Renaissance and he relates the origins of modern historicism to the clash between civic, Christian, and commercial values in eighteenth-century thought.
This Princeton Classics edition of The Machiavellian Moment features a new introduction by Richard Whatmore.

Описание: One of the emerging trends in the debate surround the causes of the 2007/2008 financial crisis has been the identification of the contributory factors. A great deal of literature has concluded that there were many factors including, inter alia, weak banking regulation, weak regulation of the consumer credit markets, securitisation and the spectacular collapse of the United States sub-prime mortgage sector. However, there has been an increasing amount of recognition that white collar crime was a significant factor that influenced the most recent financial crisis. The early body of research on the link between white collar crime and the financial crisis identified mortgage fraud as being one of the most prominent causes. However, this monograph seeks to identify a new and emerging type of white collar crime, market manipulation. Specific reference will be made to the manipulation of London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and the foreign exchange market (FOREX). In this monograph the authors will identify the association between the financial crisis and market manipulation and then critically consider the legislative, policy and enforcement responses in the United States of America, the United Kingdom and the European Union.

Описание: In this book, Ann Laura Stoler navigates the shadows and shatterzones of democratic policies, considering how imperial features are folded through (il)liberal orders, where racial inequities thicken in the borderlands of interior frontiers. Sometimes those frontiers, or the lines that define the contours of belonging and not belonging, are porous-often fixed and firm. For those on the "wrong side" of the fabulated division between inside and out, entry requirementscan be opaque, neither verbal nor visible.
Illegibilities are secured in code. The sites of inequity are disparate, the sensibilities that produce and sustain those inequities are as well. Borrowing Ralph Ellison's phrase, Stoler exposes unexpected sites and scenes that register the "lower frequencies" of denigration.
Seemingly benign sites are laid bare as toxic, as in her essay eviscerating the warped criteria assigned to taste and who can have it, and in her study of the seared lives that longing, envy, and humiliation inscribe. In so doing, she hews close to the"soft" violences of sentiments that ascribe, distribute, and assess human kinds. But the project of these essays turns as much to those who reject those violences, who distil refusal in "poetic rage"-the phrase Stoler invokes to describe the anti-colonial avant-garde.
Stoler casts this aesthetic of dissent through a surge of multi-media archiving ventures among Palestinians bent on creating and conjuring landscapes beyond Israeli violences-for the future and today. Stoler hugs close to the dark corridors where racial inequalities thrive. These inequities may be blatant but "unnoticed," others are neither muted nor unseen.
Each essay iterates a "(sub)metric of inequality" as a fictive measure of human worth. With an optic, ever bold and subtle, she turns the reader to the social ecologies and racial logics targeting the body and the senses. These are hazardous zones for the instruments and infrastructures in which (il)liberalisms invest.
Increasinglyunsettled and challenged by a more radically just demos, these sites of contest may be the emergent political scenes of racial sovereignty's unmaking and where the weapons of that unmaking are readied, and stored.
