' Critiques of Capital in Modern Britain and America demonstrates the vitality of the new transnational impulse in modern history and political science. In shifting the focus from Britain to political and intellectual exchanges between Britain and the United States, its essays illuminate afresh the struggles over contract, trust, property, consumer rights, and global crisis that have defined the modern debate over capitalism.' - Daniel Rodgers, Henry Charles Lea Professor of History, Princeton University
