Empire of Chance

- The Napoleonic Wars and the Disorder of Things

af Anders Engberg-Pedersen
Empire of Chance af Anders Engberg-Pedersen
Bag om Empire of Chance

Anders Engberg-Pedersen shows how the Napoleonic Wars inspired a new discourse on knowledge in the West. Soldiers returning from battle were forced to reconsider what it is possible to know and how decisions are made in a fog of imperfect knowledge. Chance no longer appeared exceptional but normative-a prism for understanding the modern world.
