The Constitutional Experiments of the Commonwealth (Classic Reprint): A Study of the Years 1649 1660 - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Unlocking a pivotal chapter in English history.
This study examines how the Commonwealth sought to govern from 1649 to 1660, detailing the shift from military rule to local authority and the experiments that reshaped power across the land.
Edward Jenks analyzes the rise of the Majors-General, the tax strategies known as the decimation, and the mixed results of these bold reforms. The book traces the schemes, their aims, and the tensions they created between centralized control and local rule, offering a clear view of how governance evolved in a time of upheaval.
What you will get:
- Plain-English explanations of political structures and key players.
- Connections between military power, civil administration, and local government.
- Context for why reforms sparked both support and resistance across the country.
- Discussion of long-term implications for governance in the early modern period.
Ideal for readers curious about the political experiments that shaped early modern Britain and how fragile authority can be when power is in flux.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines the political machinations of England between the death of Charles I and the Restoration, a period more complex than history would have you believe. The author argues that, despite the return of the monarchy, the period was a time of great progress in terms of constitutional development, and that many of the political ideas and systems we now take for granted have their origins in this tumultuous era in English history. However, it wasn't just a time of gradual progression; there was significant friction between different factions. The author delves into the strategies of both the Parliament, increasingly fearful of the army's influence, and the army itself, who had grown weary of the corruption in Parliament. Neither side emerged victorious in the end, with the citizens ultimately being the deciders of the monarchy's eventual return. This book is a fascinating study of a critical period in English history, providing both historical depth and contemporary resonance for anyone interested in the development of constitutional government. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
