References to the economy are ubiquitous in modern life, and virtually every facet of human activity has capitulated to market mechanisms. In the early modern period, however, there was no common perception of the economy, and discourses on money, trade, and commerce treated economic phenomena as properties of physical nature. Only in the early nineteenth century did economists begin to posit and identify the economy as a distinct object, divorcing it from natural processes and attaching it exclusively to human laws and agency. In The Natural Origins of Economics, Margaret Schabas traces the emergence and transformation of economics in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries from a natural to a social science. Focusing on the works of several prominent economists-David Hume, Adam Smith, Thomas Malthus, David Ricardo, and John Stuart Mill-Schabas examines their conceptual debt to natural science and thus locates the evolution of economic ideas within the history of science. An ambitious study, The Natural Origins of Economics will be of interest to economists, historians, and philosophers alike.

This book is the first comprehensive account of how Australia attained the world's highest living standards within a few decades of European settlement, and how the nation has sustained an enviable level of income to the present. Why Australia Prospered is a fascinating historical examination of how Australia cultivated and sustained economic growth and success. Beginning with the Aboriginal economy at the end of the eighteenth century, Ian McLean argues that Australia's remarkable prosperity across nearly two centuries was reached and maintained by several shifting factors. These included imperial policies, favorable demographic characteristics, natural resource abundance, institutional adaptability and innovation, and growth-enhancing policy responses to major economic shocks, such as war, depression, and resource discoveries. Natural resource abundance in Australia played a prominent role in some periods and faded during others, but overall, and contrary to the conventional view of economists, it was a blessing rather than a curse. McLean shows that Australia's location was not a hindrance when the international economy was centered in the North Atlantic, and became a positive influence following Asia's modernization. Participation in the world trading system, when it flourished, brought significant benefits, and during the interwar period when it did not, Australia's protection of domestic manufacturing did not significantly stall growth. McLean also considers how the country's notorious origins as a convict settlement positively influenced early productivity levels, and how British imperial policies enhanced prosperity during the colonial period. He looks at Australia's recent resource-based prosperity in historical perspective, and reveals striking elements of continuity that have underpinned the evolution of the country's economy since the nineteenth century.

Dès les débuts de l'expansion belge au Congo, les coloniaux ont noué des liens intimes avec les femmes africaines qu'ils rencontraient, parfois pour des périodes prolongées de vie commune. Ces liaisons avec celles qui seront rapidement désignées par le doux euphémisme de " ménagères " ont constitué un sujet de préoccupation pour les autorités qui les ont successivement encouragées, tolérées, puis fermement condamnées. Bien plus qu'une simple histoire des " ménagères ", cet ouvrage propose une étude de la perception de ces relations par les sociétés coloniale et métropolitaine et des politiques de morale sexuelle mises en place par les autorités. Il aborde également la prostitution autochtone et les anxiétés et les réactions qu'elle suscite. Ces dernières illustrent la volonté de l'Etat colonial de contrôler des pratiques jugées subversives ainsi que le caractère stratégique de la sexualité en situation coloniale
