  • Introduction: the Entangled Histories of Science and Capitalism
    Introduction: The Entangled Histories of Science and Capitalism by Lukas Rieppel,* Eugenia Lean,§ and William Deringer# ABSTRACT This volume revisits the mutually constitutive relationship between science and capitalism from the seventeenth century to the present day. Adopting a global ap- proach, we reject the notion that either science or capitalism can be understood as stages of modernity that emerged in the West and subsequently engendered a “Great Divergence” with the rest of the world. Instead, both science and capitalism were historical institutions that arose in an imperial context of global exchange and whose entanglement has been continuously remade. Rather than seek to explain ei- ther the development of modern science as a product of economic forces or the diver- gence of capitalist economies as a result of technical innovation, we want to empha- size the knowledge work that has been a central feature of both modern science and capitalism across the globe. This volume examines the relationship between two cultural institutions—science and capitalism—that have proven enormously powerful in shaping the modern world. Due to its considerable scope and significance, scholars in the history and social stud- ies of science have debated the exact nature of that relationship at least since the 1930s and 1940s, if not before. To be sure, then, ours is a massive and complex topic, one whose elucidation far exceeds the scope of any one volume. It also admits of a seemingly endless number of interpretations. But we nonetheless believe it is well worth revisiting. That is the goal of this volume: to explore how, and the extent to which, science and capitalism have been entangled with one another—historically, epistemically, and materially.

While grand tourists headed south to experience Mediterranean cli- mate and admire Renaissance masterpieces, savants from Mediterranean countries set out on northern tours through England, France, and the Netherlands; philosophers such as Voltaire and Pierre-Louis Moreau de Maupertuis traveled back and forth between Paris and Berlin, while itiner- ant demonstrators followed more erratic trajectories within and across national borders. Travel was quintessential to the culture of Enlighten- ment: it was part of the educational trajectory of men and often women of letters, and it was a topic of conversation, a literary genre, and an element of social mobility.1 It was also crucial to the enlightened economy.2 At a time Paola Bertucci is an assistant professor of history at Yale University and is the author of Viaggio nel paese delle meraviglie: Scienza e curiosità nell’Italia del Settecento (2007) and coauthor of Electric Bodies: Episodes in the History of Medical Electricity (2001).

  • Masculinities in Science / Sciences of Masculinity
    OSIRIS Vol. 30 (2015) Proposal Masculinities in Science / Sciences of Masculinity Co-editors: Erika Lorraine Milam (Associate Professor of History, University of Maryland) Robert A. Nye (Horning Professor of the Humanities, Emeritus, Oregon State University) Given the ubiquitous dominance of men as scientists and engineers and doctors throughout history, what are the consequences of changing the kinds of questions we ask about the scientific enterprise from, for example, “why did scientists think X?” to “why did male scientists think X?” Or, more exactly, what does it add to our understanding of science if we factor in the masculine social and cultural perspectives of time and place? In some cases, the answer will be quite revealing; in other cases, less so. We should ask the question anyway—after all, we ask it of women scientists all the time. The tools for understanding complex gender dynamics and the importance of gender in the everyday lived experiences of scientists and engineers have been amply demonstrated by the substantial literature on women in science and gender studies of science. The first efforts to explore the issue of gender in the history of science in the 1960s were feminist analyses of the causes and reasons for the exclusion of women from professional science, technology, and medicine. Several myths needed to be exploded: science was a masculine and objective enterprise unsuited to women; women had contributed historically little to scientific developments; when they did contribute it was in fields appropriate to their natures and skills. The job of unpacking these myths has fallen to philosophers, sociologists and historians of science.

  • Ec 565 Topics in Economic History Fall 2019 Christophe Chamley ([email protected])
    Ec 565 Topics in economic history Fall 2019 Christophe Chamley ([email protected]) Office hours: 401, Wednesday, 2-5pm (Call before to make an appointment) The course provides an introduction to economic history. The main thread will be the evolution of the public finances from the antique mediterranean world to Western Europe up the 19th century (with detours in the US and Asia). The course should provide an introduction to • interactions between economics and history, • relations between current and past issues in economics, • some examples of current research in economic history. A central feature in this course is to develop you own outlook at history. Use the work of others for their information, but make up your own mind. What you will most remember is not what others said about a particular event but how you looked at it. An essential task in this course is to develop your own critical thinking. For this, going through the filter of academic work and accessing historical documents are essential. There is no pre-chewed material as in a textbook, and in any case, there is no textbook that would fit with the material of the course. You have been warned: do not complain about the absence of textbook. A number of readings are in professional journals. Economic history requires more reading than other courses in economics. If you are not prepared to do some extra reading, you should not take the course. All readings will be either provided with a URL (requiring a BU connection), or downloadable directly from the web site of the course.

  • H-France Review Vol. 15 (October 2015), No. 142 Ingrid Sykes
    H-France Review Volume 15 (2015) Page 1 H-France Review Vol. 15 (October 2015), No. 142 Ingrid Sykes, Society, Culture and the Auditory Imagination in Modern France: The Humanity of Hearing. Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire: Palgrave Macmillan, 2015. x + 169 pp. Notes, bibliography, index. $90.00 U.S. ISBN 978-1-137-45534-5. Review by Alexandra Kieffer, Rice University. In recent years, topics falling under the umbrella of “sound studies” or “auditory culture” have boomed in the academy in a variety of fields--media studies, film studies, history, English and literature, ethnomusicology, musicology, music theory, and art history, to name a few. Ingrid Sykes’s Society, Culture and the Auditory Imagination in Modern France: The Humanity of Hearing contributes to this ever- growing field of research, undertaking a history of hearing in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century France that addresses such diverse topics as medical treatises, small claims courts, hospital practices, and musical instrument design. For Sykes, the thread uniting these topics is their shared cultivation of an “auditory imagination” which could be a site of transformative social change. She argues that “hearing might have acted as a catalyst for the construction of ‘humanity,’ that broader social realm of compassion and social cohesion which shaped social practice within eighteenth- and nineteenth-century French society” (p. 13). The book encompasses an admirably wide scope, inviting readers to consider the ways in which ideas of hearing manifested in diverse cultural spheres in modern France. Alain Corbin aptly noted that a history of the senses “represents for the historian a project--or rather a gamble--which is risky but fascinating.”[1] While Sykes’s project comprises a collection of highly compelling historical case studies, as a whole it succumbs to many of the shortcomings and pitfalls that make sound studies a risky, and difficult, scholarly undertaking.

  • 'Unfettered Freedom' Revisited: Hungarian Historical Journals
    Contemporary European History (2021), 30, 427–438 doi:10.1017/S0960777321000229 SPOTLIGHT ‘Unfettered Freedom’ Revisited: Hungarian Historical Journals between 1989 and 2018 Andrea Pető and Ildikó Barna Central European University, 1010 Wien, Quellenstraße 51–55 [email protected] Eötvös Loránd University, 1117 Budapest, Pázmány Péter sétány 1/a [email protected] In his 1992 article, ‘Today, Freedom is Unfettered in Hungary,’1 Columbia University history professor István Deák argued that after 1989 Hungarian historical research enjoyed ‘unfettered freedom.2 Deák gleefully listed the growing English literature on Hungarian history and hailed the ‘step-by step dis- mantling of the Marxist-Leninist edifice in historiography’3 that he associated with the Institute of History at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (HAS) under the leadership of György Ránki (1930–88).4 In this article he argued that the dismantling of communist historiography had started well before 1989. Besides celebrating the establishment of the popular science-oriented historical jour- nal, History (História) (founded in 1979) and new institutions such as the Európa Intézet – Europa Institute (founded in 1990) or the Central European University (CEU) (founded in 1991) as turning points in Hungarian historical research, Deák listed the emergence of the question of minorities and Transylvania; anti-Semitism and the Holocaust; as well as the 1956 revolution. It is very true that these topics were addressed by prominent members of the Hungarian democratic opposition who were pub- lishing in samizdat publications: among them János M. Rainer, the director of the 1956 Institute after 1989, who wrote about 1956. This list of research topics implies that other topics than these listed before had been free to research and were not at all political.

I | Introduction Communities in different times and places in the world have given varying weight to forms of knowledge and the variety of processes by which knowledge is believed to be created. Bound to each society’s unique culture, these epistemological hierarchies are constantly in flux: Social and religious factors, for example, shaped such hierarchies by emphasizing some processes of creating knowledge (“ways of knowing”) over others, while those ways of knowing could in turn influence the society in which they were performed. In this study, I examine the changing status of mathematics in the epistemological hierarchy of the medieval Islamicate world, especially in terms of its relationship to other forms of natural and secular knowledge.1 Part of my research included a quantitative study, detailed in Appendix A, which suggested two trends: (1) Overall, the field of pure mathematics drew more Muslim than non-Muslim scholars, and (2) this trend was not consistent across time; rather, interest spiked in the late ninth to early tenth century and remained high through the rest of the ‘Abbasid period.

  • 2020 CATALOG Chicago Journals
    :: 2020 CATALOG chicago journals Founded in 1891, the University of Chicago Press is one of the oldest continuously operating university presses in the United States. From its inception, a primary goal of the Press has been to publish academic findings and analyses from scholars the world over. Journals publishing was integral to the founding of the Press: the Journal of Political Economy, its first scholarly publication, has been published here continuously for 125 years. In this time, the University of Chicago Press has proudly fostered partnerships with publications in diverse areas of study. Several of Chicago’s journals were the first of their kind in their respective fields. TheAmerican Journal of Sociology, founded in 1895, is the oldest journal devoted to sociology. Social Service Review was founded in 1927, just as the field of social work was being established. Until the publication of History of Religions in 1961, no journal had devoted itself exclusively to the subject of comparative religious history. The University of Chicago Press journals portfolio represents more than 80 scholarly publications that cover a wide range of disciplines, from the humanities and the social sciences to the life and physical sciences. In addition to working with departments and faculty of the University of Chicago, the University of Chicago Press publishes influential scholarly journals on behalf of learned and professional societies and associations, foundations, museums, and other not-for-profit organizations. All are peer-reviewed publications, with readerships that include scholars, scientists, and practitioners, as well as other interested, educated individuals. With its roots firmly in the academy, the University of Chicago Press Journals Division continues to recognize the importance of the dissemination of significant research.
