    by Robert Leroux ...
    Series series Social Sciences (R0)
    The thinking of Antoine-Augustin Cournot has inspired a growing literature in economy and epistemology, but as of yet, his sociological thought has not been explicitly discussed and contextualized within the discipline.

    A Sociology of Emancipation

    by Luc Boltanski ...

  • Before the Deluge

    Public Debt, Inequality, and the Intellectual Origins of the French Revolution

    Ever since the French Revolution, Madame de Pompadour's comment, "Après moi, le déluge" (after me, the deluge), has looked like a callous if accurate prophecy of the political cataclysms that began in 1789. But decades before the Bastille fell, French writers had used the phrase to describe a different kind of selfish recklessness--not toward the flood of revolution but, rather, toward the flood ...
