In The Origin of Capitalism, a now-classic work of history, Ellen
Meiksins Wood offers readers a clear and accessible introduction to
the theories and debates concerning the birth of capitalism,
imperialism, and the modern nation state. Capitalism is not a
natural and inevitable consequence of human nature, nor simply an
extension of age-old practices of trade and commerce. Rather, it is
a late and localized product of very specific historical
conditions, which required great transformations in social
relations and in the relationship between humans and nature.
