Foundations Of Capitalism (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258080662)

Foundations of Capitalism is a comprehensive book written by Oliver Cromwell Cox that provides an in-depth analysis of the origins and development of capitalism. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the historical context of capitalism, the economic theories that underpin it, and the social and political implications of this economic system.Cox argues that capitalism emerged in Western Europe during the late Middle Ages and was facilitated by a number of factors, including the growth of trade and commerce, the development of new technologies, and the rise of a new class of entrepreneurs and capitalists. He also explores the role of colonialism and imperialism in the expansion of capitalism, and the ways in which capitalism has shaped modern society and culture.The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of capitalism. The first section provides an overview of the historical context of capitalism, while the second section delves into the economic theories that underpin this economic system. The third section examines the social and political implications of capitalism, including its impact on labor, class, and inequality.Throughout the book, Cox draws on a wide range of sources, including historical documents, economic theory, and social and political analysis. He also includes numerous case studies and examples to illustrate his arguments, making the book both informative and engaging.Overall, Foundations of Capitalism is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the origins and development of capitalism, and the ways in which this economic system has shaped modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
