Project description
This project will study chronopolitics in the political languages of the pamphlets and the opinion press in the Austrian Netherlands and the Dutch Republic (1780-1790). We define “chronopolitics” as the relation between perspectives on time and their impact on political discours and policy-making. A study of this “politics of time” will yield new insight in the political culture and intellectual history of the Low Countries.
