It places these ideas within broader debates within the history of economic thought to highlight how the nature of economic activity is a collective and coordinated process. Through examining how the welfare state reversed traditional accumulation by relying on human capital growth, the importance of the state within the development process is emphasised, alongside the multifaceted nature of competition. Different forms of public expenditure are then evaluated to identify the most productive forms of public spending and the drivers of long term economic development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book questions the relationship between profits and rent and proposes a new kind of economic development based around human capital. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought, the political economy, and labour economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cosimo Perrotta, Salvatore Rizzello, Claudia Sunna\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031344936\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031344930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.44d","brand":"Cosimo Perrotta","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44254856249599,"sku":"9783031344930","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f9de266-06ca-43b7-a454-85696eef99e8.jpg?v=1694614716","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/human-capital-cosimo-perrotta-9783031344930","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
