Capitalism has been a controversial concept. In the second half of
the 20th century, many historians have either not used the concept
at all, or only in passing. Many regarded the term as too broad,
holistic and vague or too value-loaded, ideological and polemic.
This volume brings together leading scholars to explore why the
term has recently experienced a comeback and assess how useful the
term can be in application to social and economic history. The
contributors discuss whether and how the history of capitalism
enables us to ask new questions, further explore unexhausted
sources and discover new connections between previously unrelated
phenomena. The chapters address case studies drawn from around the
world, giving attention to Europe, Africa and beyond. This is a
timely reassessment of a crucial concept, which will be of great
interest to scholars and students of economic history.
