This study examines the process of capital accumulation at the
level of the business firm, linking it to the macro-level of the
world-economy as explicated by Hopkins and Wallerstein. Focusing
upon the timber industry in the nineteenth century, and using
primary archival material, the work analyzes how capital operates
in the resource sector in the world-economy. The purpose is to
refine further our understanding of capitalism as a mode of social
organization and production, and in the process, refine
contemporary theories of social change. In terms of coverage, the
book addresses the timber industry over the course of the
nineteenth century and provides an historical reconstruction of
that industry. Its primary focus, however, is on the main features
of timber and lumber production as a process of capital
accumulation. The study will be of interest to scholars of social
change and economic transformation, economic history, and political
sociology.
