Economic historians conventionally date the origins of the English fiscal
state to the foundation of the Bank of England in 1694. By European
standards this was a belated innovation; the Spanish, Dutch and French
had developed effective methods of debt service around a century earlier,
based upon high tax revenues and borrowing. This study will explore the
reasons why the English lagged behind their rivals in developing a fiscal
state.

The thesis is that of Simon Healy, of @HistParl. Truly excellent work on the troubles of the early 17thC English fiscal state.
