Joseph Schumpeter (1883 - 1950) was one of the foremost economic
thinkers of the twentieth century. Today Schumpeter is most
well-known for his idea of 'creative destruction'. This is the
notion that a market economy is simultaneously creative and
destructive and therein lies the process of renewal that is central
to the endurance and also the unpopularity of capitalism.
Schumpeter's work also contains one of the most important
conservative critiques of mass democracy. Schumpeter argued that
mass democracy had totalitarian tendencies and was likely to
degenerate into the tyranny of the popular.
