The Marketplace Of Revolution : How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence

Attribution
T.H. Breen
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 2005
Description
The boycott movement–the signature of American resistance–invited colonists traditionally excluded from formal political processes to voice their opinions about liberty and rights within a revolutionary marketplace, an open, raucous public forum that defined itself around subscription lists passed door-to-door, voluntary associations, street protests, destruction of imported British goods, and incendiary newspaper exchanges. The Marketplace of Revolution explains how at a moment of political crisis Americans gave political meaning to the pursuit of happiness and learned how to make goods speak to power.
