Trust and Distrust: Corruption in Office in Britain and its Empire, 1600-1850
Knights, Mark (Professor of History, Professor of History, University of Warwick)
Mark Knights offers the first overview of Britain's history of corruption in office in the pre-modern era, 1600-1850. Drawing on extensive archival material, Knights shows how corruption in the domestic and imperial spheres interacted, and how the concept of corruption developed during this period, changing British ideas of trust and distrust.
