Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
The Texas Rangers. The words evoke exciting images of daring,
courage, high adventure. The Rangers began as a handful of men
protecting their homes from savage raiding parties; now in their
third century of existence, they are a highly sophisticated
crime-fighting organization. Yet at times even today the Texas
Ranger mounts his horse to track fugitives through dense chaparral,
depending on his wits more than technology. The iconic image of the
Texas Ranger is of a man who is tall, unflinching, and dedicated to
doing a difficult job no matter what the odds. The Rangers of the
21st century are different sizes, colors, and genders, but remain
as vital and real today as when they were created in the horseback
days of 1823, when what is today Texas was part of Mexico, a wild
and untamed land.
The theory of monopoly capital is central to any satisfactory
analysis of accumulation and stagnation in advanced capitalist
economies. This major new book presents in one volume recent
discussions of monopoly capitalism to emphasize the centrality and
vitality of this tradition in modern political economy.Following
the work of Kalecki, Steindl and Baran and Sweezy, a number of
leading economists address key issues such as the calculation of
the economic surplus, the division of income between labour and
capital, oligopoly collusion over output and pricing, the growth of
unproductive activity, the degree of monopoly, surplus absorption
and stagnation and the history of the present crisis.
