Joseph Alois Schumpeter is arguably the most important economist of
the 20th century. Most readers are familiar with his Theory of
Economic Development and his classic Capitalism, Socialism and
Democracy. Less well-known are his seminal works published before
he left Europe for the United States in 1942. In particular for the
first time the missing Chapter Seven of his Theory of Economic
Development has been published in this volume. It tries to put
Economic Development into the broader context of culture, law and
policy. Many of his earlier writings display a similar integrative
approach and are therefore often treated as sociological writings.
As Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy shows, he did not dissociate
the different social sciences in his own mind but rather strove to
keep the unity of the social sciences. Entrepreneurship, style and
vision are the unifying concepts of his work.
