À propos de ce livre

The 1637 Netherlands bubble did not end with ruined fields, but with disputed promises and uneasy courts. Tulips exposed a society unsure whether desire could be treated as debt. Contracts Without Flowers shifts the story from spectacle to enforcement. Rather than repeating the familiar image of irrational crowds, it studies the legal uncertainty around forward sales, canceled obligations, bankruptcy fears, and pamphlet warfare. Early financial history becomes intimate here: a buyer's word, a grower's expectation, a broker's commission, and a magistrate's hesitation all carried weight. The collapse mattered because no one fully knew what the market had made binding. In the Dutch Republic, commerce depended on reputation as much as coin. Tulip Mania therefore belongs not only to the history of speculation, but to the European history of institutions learning where trust ends and law begins.
