520 The author provides a concise and comprehensive history of
capitalism within a global perspective from its medieval
origins to the 2008 financial crisis and beyond. The
author offers an account of capitalism that weighs its
great achievements against its great costs, crises, and
failures. The book puts the rise of capitalist economies
in social, political, and cultural context, and shows how
their current problems and foreseeable future are
connected to a long history. The book describes how
capitalist expansion was connected to colonialism; how
industrialism brought unprecedented innovation, growth,
and prosperity but also increasing inequality; and how
managerialism, financialization, and globalization later
changed the face of capitalism. The book also addresses
the idea of capitalism in the work of thinkers such as
Marx, Weber, and Schumpeter, and chronicles how criticism
of capitalism is as old as capitalism itself, fed by its
persistent contradictions and recurrent emergencies.--
