Quotes by Richard Whatmore (?)

“no surprise that enthusiasm inspired by superstition often resulted in violence. Examples included the Anabaptists of the 1520s in Germany, the Levellers in England in the 1640s, the Covenanters in Scotland in the 1660s and the Camisard rebels in France in 1703.”

“This has been referred to as the doux commerce thesis: that commerce could in certain circumstances become a force for peace since trade relied upon toleration, generating soft-power linkages capable of preventing conflict.24 The possibility of peace between Britain and France was Hume’s positive response to what he identified as the most shocking innovation in modern politics: the linkage between war and trade.25 This linkage was the greatest threat to enlightenment as Hume defined it.”
