Railroading Economics: The Creation of the Free Market Mythology
ISBN: 9781583671368 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most economic theory assumes a pure capitalism of perfect competition. This book is a penetrating critique of the rhetoric and practice of conventional economic theory. It explores how even in the United States--the most capitalist of countries--the market has always been subject to numerous constraints. Perelman examines the way in which these constraints have been defended by such figures as Henry Ford, J. P. Morgan, and Herbert Hoover, and were indeed essential to the expansion of U.S. capitalism. In the process, he rediscovers the critical element in conservative thought--the... Most economic theory assumes a pure capitalism of perfect competition.

The Natural Instability of Markets: Expectations, Increasing Returns, and the Collapse of Capitalism
ISBN: 9780312221218 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As Socialist states struggle to transform themselves into market economies and the United States privatizes everything from schooling to policing, the current crises in Russia and East Asia suggest that something might be amiss. In the rush to open societies to the benefits of competition, economists have overlooked the fundamental instability of competitive markets. What had seemed to be an invincible capitalist juggernaut may be reaching its apotheosis. A close look at market economies is more timely and crucial than ever. Michael Perelman argues that capitalism's victory is temporary,...

The Pathology of the Us Economy: The Costs of a Low-Wage System
ISBN: 9780333650233 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book demonstrates the calamitous consequences of the current US policies that follow a Haitian model of low wage development.

From the beginning, the boom contained the seeds of its own destruction. As the boom disintegrated, attempts to stabilize the economy made matters even worse. Efforts at profit maximization reinforced the problems. For example, attacks on both labour and government reinforced the decline. This work warns against framing policies...

The End of Economics
ISBN: 9781138059955 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most economic theory assumes a pure capitalism of perfect competition. Even when it is recognized that this does not exist, many politicians and captains of industry pay a great deal of lip service to the idea of the market. This book goes beyond the rhetoric to explore how, even in the United States, the most capitalist of all countries, the market has always been subjected to numerous constraints. As well as discussing the opinions of economists, the book looks at the opinions and practices of figures such as Henry Ford, J.P. Morgan, and Herbert Hoover.

ISBN: 9780275923723 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The history of capitalism has long been thought to be a sequence of recurring crises that appear in various forms: crises in employing people, crises in obtaining resources, and financial crises. Marx's Crises Theory: Scarcity, Labor, and Finance provides a framework for interpreting Marx's theory of crises. In conclusion, the author asserts that as long as the financial structure leads to periodic breakdowns, Marx's writings on the subject will retain their importance as a source of theory and analysis of the dynamics of political economy. The history of capitalism has long been thought to be a sequence of recurring crises that appear in various forms: crises in employing people, cris... |
