After Orleans execution in November 1793, his vast properties became state property and Leblanc s factory was seized. Three months later, Leblanc faced even more distressing news. With war threatening, the Committee of Public Safety called for patent holders of soda processes to publish their methods A true republican does not hesitate to relinquish the ownership of even the fruits of his mind when he hears the voice of his... 

At the time of Degas visit, the men in Rillieux s white family were briefly involved in the Unification Movement, an abortive attempt by pragmatic white and black businessmen to head off Reconstruction by radical Republicans and voluntarily integrate local governments and public schools. After the Unification Movement failed and Degas returned to France, Rillieux s relations moved on to support whites-only political movements. In a pitched street battle, an all-white militia fought an integrated city police force 32 people died before federal troops restored order. 

Two months after Ethyl Corporation s formation, however, the infant company was threatened with extinction. One day Ernest Oelgert, a worker in a pilot tetraethyl lead factory in Elizabeth, New Jersey, became delirious and screamed that three figures were coming at him. Later that day Standard Oil of New Jersey, which operated the factory, also sent home ill William McSweeney, a former general in the Irish Republican Army.

The three chapters of part one sketch the history of whiteness through three periods in the American setting. The contending forces that have fashioned and refashioned whiteness in the United States across time, I argue, are capitalism (with its insatiable appetite for cheap labor) and republicanism (with its imperative of responsible citizenship). Citizenship was a racially inscribed concept at the outset of the new nation by an act of Congress, only free white immigrants could be naturalized. Yet as... 

Tell the republicans on your side of the line that we royalists do not know men by their color. Should you come to us you will be entitled to all the privileges of the rest of His Majesty s subjects. 

One need look further, at the complex crosscurrents at the confluence of capitalism, republicanism, and the diasporic sensibilities of various racially defined groups themselves. In his satiric novel The Man Who Knew Coolidge (1928), Sinclair Lewis pointed out one of the critical integers in the equation of race and economics. Amid a harangue about the political debates surrounding birth control, Lewis s Nordic Citizen remarks,... 

This is not to minimize the significance of economics and class in racial formation. Race and class are intertwined in ways that even Roediger and Allen have yet to explore fully. First, republican notions of independence had both racial and economic valences the white men s movement for Free Labor, Free Soil, and Free Men was but the flipside of certain... 

Gordon Wood, perhaps the foremost student of the Revolutionary generation s republicanism, illumines the extent to which inclusions and exclusions based on whiteness did not contradict, but rather constituted, republican principles, though he himself is little concerned with race. Wood s gloss of popular republicanism contains several features that... 

It is for the Republican institutions of America that we hope and fear most.
