This study analyzes parliamentary suffrage debates in England, France and Germany, showing that liberals throughout Europe used a distinctive political language, 'the discourse of capacity', to limit political participation. This language defined liberals, and they used it to define and limit full citizenship. The rise of consumer culture at the end of the century drove the discourse of capacity from politics, but it survives today in education and the professions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Kahan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1349510785\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781349510788\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 239\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.52d","brand":"Alan Kahan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48994871378175,"sku":"9781349510788","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/liberalism-in-nineteenth-century-europe-alan-kahan-9781349510788","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
