- W2009204154 abstract "T he forces represented by what we have termed gentlemanly capitalism rose to prominence in the late seventeenth century. 1 At their centre stood the powerful landed interest which combined, in the manner of samurai, the prestige of inherited social position with progressive, market-oriented ambitions. Closely associated with the landed elite, and offering it both support and deference, were the men of the emerging service sector, whose innovations in finance, distribution and the professions generated wealth and eventually bestowed social recognition. Important though the manufacturing sector was, it was also less dynamic than is often supposed, and its representatives lacked both prestige and direct access to the charmed circles where policy was formulated. In the eighteenth century, England's mission was concerned less with world conquest than with entrenching domestic political order in the aftermath of the Civil War. But political imperatives at home rapidly became linked to economic and military success abroad as the creation of wealth from the burgeoning transactions sector promoted private gain, the fiscal needs of the state, and the defence of the realm. The fusion of these initially disparate elements produced a concept of the national interest which grounded individual liberties in approved property rights and used the apparatus of state to maintain, through the patronage system, the balance of the constitution. This regime experienced increasing budgetary and political difficulties, at home and abroad, as the eighteenth century advanced, and after i8I5 reforms were introduced which curtailed old corruption at home and used the weapon of free trade to create new opportunities for finance and services abroad. In these ways the gentlemanly elite and its associates sought to adapt to the nineteenth century without relinquishing its inherited social prestige, acquired wealth, or public acceptability. As overseas expansion and imperial acquisition had been used to support these ambitions in the period down to i850, so too they were called into play-on an even larger scale-in the century which followed." @default.
