Capitalist Economics introduces and explains the basic economic
forces that shape the present and structure the future of
capitalist societies today. Rejecting the idea that economics is a
universal science of "choice" or the "efficient allocation of
scarce resources," this book analyzes economic forces and relations
as essential elements of a broader society. This entails
understanding "the economic" as a logic that always operates
alongside cultural, political, and social forces. As well, it
requires grasping the economic as itself a product of historical
development. This book explores the unique economic pressures found
in capitalist societies, offering detailed yet concise analysis of
basic concepts - commodities, money, exchange, interest - and
investigating broader issues such as the source of profit, the
nature of growth, and the role of technology and invention. Written
for political scientists, sociologists, philosophers, cultural
studies scholars, and beyond, the book is a completely new way of
grasping socio-economic relations.
