“Steuart, who was also impressed by the great power of the “little objects of ambition” to motivate ordinary persons,[73] presented this same contrast in less positive terms: In former times “men were . . . forced to labour because they were slaves to others; men are now forced to labour because they are slaves to their own wants.”
Jan de Vries, The Industrious Revolution: Consumer Behavior and the Household Economy, 1650 to the Present
