Imperial Germany And The Industrial Revolution (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163104347)

Imperial Germany and the Industrial Revolution is a book written by Thorstein Veblen, an American economist and sociologist, that explores the economic and social conditions of Imperial Germany during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book provides a detailed analysis of Germany's industrialization process, including the role of government policies, technological advancements, and the emergence of new industries such as chemicals and electrical engineering. Veblen also examines the social and cultural changes that accompanied Germany's industrialization, including the rise of a new middle class and the transformation of traditional social structures. The book argues that Germany's success in industrialization was largely due to its ability to adapt to changing economic conditions and to the strong role played by the state in promoting economic development. However, Veblen also highlights the negative aspects of Germany's industrialization, such as the exploitation of workers and the concentration of economic power in the hands of a few powerful corporations. Overall, Imperial Germany and the Industrial Revolution is a comprehensive and insightful study of one of the most important periods in German history and its impact on the global economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
