We argue that the nature of the tax base available to governments can either foster or constrain the ability and incentives of central elites to impose their legitimacy once the war is over. We illustrate this dynamic by analysing the evolution of public revenues in Chile before, during, and after the War of the Pacific (1879–83). The seizure of natural resource-rich areas enabled the Chilean state to raise public revenues and expand its size. This process was driven by a significant increase in natural resource revenues, accompanied by the reduction or decentralization of other revenue sources - outcomes shaped by deliberate policy choices. Over time, the limitations of this arrangement became increasingly evident, paving the way for the introduction of new domestic taxes and investments in fiscal capacity from the early twentieth century onward. While these shifts are crucial for understanding the long-term development of Chilean state capacity, they proved insufficient to address the short-term macroeconomic vulnerabilities stemming from the state's dependence on natural resource taxation.</p>","PeriodicalId":47868,"journal":{"name":"Economic History Review","volume":"79 2","pages":"575-599"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ehr.70023","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148012277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mortality from targeted diseases decreased by 8.5 per cent relative to non-targeted diseases within 5 years of the reforms.

It demonstrates that middle-class decencies became substantially cheaper during the seventeenth century, nuancing the industrious revolution hypothesis in urban settings, but we also find no sustained positive impact of rising consumption on the material living standards of the labouring masses. In the eighteenth century, in fact, first- and second-hand prices diverged due to the combined effects of a supply glut, the accelerating turnover of fashion, and the inherent fragility of many novel consumer goods. While elite and middling households compensated for their indulgence in consumerism with prudent ‘investment’ in more durable possessions, thereby ensuring a transferable inheritance for the next generation, our analysis documents the material impoverishment of Amsterdam's working classes during the final decades of the <i>ancien régime</i>. The consumer revolution, we conclude, contributed to the eighteenth-century rise of material – or ‘real’ – inequality between the shrinking middle classes of this preindustrial metropolis on the one hand and its growing numbers of impoverished inhabitants on the other.</p>","PeriodicalId":47868,"journal":{"name":"Economic History Review","volume":"79 2","pages":"684-716"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ehr.70036","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148012074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its specific innovation is to draw on a previously little-used weekly publication of public finance statistics, allowing the roles of monetary policy, taxation, and public spending to be assessed side-by-side in a coherent framework – a structural vector autoregression identified with sign restrictions. In a period of particularly unsettled policy, I find that policy shocks, both monetary and fiscal, made a material contribution to variation in prices and unemployment and played a central role in the two great recessions of the period, modern Britain's most severe. Other macroeconomic policy choices could have delivered better outcomes for prices and unemployment, but this would have required making different choices in the face of conflicting objectives and some sharp trade-offs.</p>","PeriodicalId":47868,"journal":{"name":"Economic History Review","volume":"79 2","pages":"661-683"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148012010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
