With the restoration of laissez faire as the governing principle of
contemporary economic ideology and policy making, Thorstein
Veblen's insights are once again timely. This book revisits his
legacy, featuring original essays by renowned Veblen scholars. The
contributors review and comment upon the subjects that concerned
Veblen such as: the legal system, finance and capital, the
operation of markets, neoclassical economics, private property,
cultural and economic change, the place of science, and higher
education. They consider how his evolutionary theory of the economy
and society can continue to inform our understanding of our modern
world. As an astute and highly capable observer, Veblen shed light
on our present system through a re-examination of a similar system.
Students and scholars of economics will find this provocative book
of great interest. It will also be a refreshing discussion for
those frustrated by the gap between the rosy scenarios of
conventional economics and the problems of inequality, conspicuous
consumption, concentrated economic power and unresponsive
government.
