Abstract

This chapter explores some of the grounds for comparison between English and Dutch republicanism, in the light of Anglo-Dutch relations in the second half of the seventeenth century (see Jones 1968). It seeks to highlight the commonalities but also what is distinctive about republican theory and practice in these two seventeenth-century cases. It leads on to the discussion in the following chapter of two of the most important features of Dutch republicanism, which become apparent in part through the comparison with English republicanism.
