Bibliolater 📚 📜 🖋<p>🇬🇧 🇮🇳 **Company-State at Home: The East India Company and the Fiscal System in Eighteenth-Century Britain**</p><p>“_This article shows that fiscal capacity was not created only by government bureaucracies: the ‘company-state at home’ model presented here complements the narrative of the ‘fiscal-military state’ by showing that much fiscal revenue from trade was realized through the action of the English East India Company (EIC). Lacking the capacity to enact exhaustive laws, carry out complex calculations, or effectively manage a large bureaucracy, the English state relied on the administrative capacity of the EIC to collect customs on the East Indies trade._”</p><p>Karolina Hutková, Ernesto Dal Bó, Lukas Leucht, Noam Yuchtman, Company-State at Home: The East India Company and the Fiscal System in Eighteenth-Century Britain, Past &amp; Present, 2025;, gtaf009, <a href="https://doi.org/10.1093/pastj/gtaf009" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">doi.org/10.1093/pastj/gtaf009</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>. </p><p><a href="https://qoto.org/tags/OpenAccess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenAccess</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/OA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OA</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Article" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Article</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/DOI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOI</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Histodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Histodon</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Histodons</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/UnitedKingdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedKingdom</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Britain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Britain</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/India" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>India</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/EastIndiaCompany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EastIndiaCompany</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/C18th" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>C18th</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Academia</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Academics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Academics</span></a> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodon</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span></p>
