Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonial Precedents of Our National Land System as It Existed in 1800 The object of this paper is to exhibit the continuity that ex ists between the colonial land systems and that system framed by the national legislators from 1785 to 1800. As has been said, seemingly new legislation was founded on the best of colonial precedents. The men in Congress drew chiefly on their own knowledge and experience of colonial land practices for the ideas embodied in the land laws; and keen discrimination was used in recommending the best features of the existing systems.' No complete account of the colonial land systems is intended. Only those customs and laws will be mentioned which throw light upon the relation between the colonial methods of dealing with public lands, and the federal system as it was in 1800. Whatever indicates an evolution of the federal plan from colon ial beginnings will be emphasized. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Credit Nation written by Claire Priest and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-20 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How American colonists laid the foundations of American capitalism with an economy built on credit Even before the United States became a country, laws prioritizing access to credit set colonial America apart from the rest of the world. Credit Nation examines how the drive to expand credit shaped property laws and legal institutions in the colonial and founding eras of the republic. In this major new history of early America, Claire Priest describes how the British Parliament departed from the customary ways that English law protected land and inheritance, enacting laws for the colonies that privileged creditors by defining land and slaves as commodities available to satisfy debts. Colonial governments, in turn, created local legal institutions that enabled people to further leverage their assets to obtain credit. Priest shows how loans backed with slaves as property fueled slavery from the colonial era through the Civil War, and that increased access to credit was key to the explosive growth of capitalism in nineteenth-century America. Credit Nation presents a new vision of American economic history, one where credit markets and liquidity were prioritized from the outset, where property rights and slaves became commodities for creditors' claims, and where legal institutions played a critical role in the Stamp Act crisis and other political episodes of the founding period.

Download or read book Human Territoriality written by Robert David Sack and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1986-11-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this book demonstrates that territoriality for humans is not an instinct, but a powerful and often indispensable geographical strategy used to control people and things by controlling area. This argument is developed by analysing the possible advantages and disadvantages that territoriality can provide, and by considering why some and not others arise at particular times. Major changes are explored in the relationships between territory and society from primitive times to the present day, with special attention to the distinctions between premodern and modern uses of space and territory. Specific analyses of the pre-modern uses of territoriality are provided by the history of the Catholic Church, and, for the modern context, by study of North American political territorial organization and the organization of factory, office, and home.
