About this book
The fiscal and institutional development of the Dauphiné province, Frances, suggests a different absolutist dynamic than the conventional idea of a top-down centralization process. Daniel Hickey analyses the groups that directed each stage of the struggle for tax reform that actively encouraged royal intervention.
