The Age of American Capitalism (utopia Translation Series 068)
About This Novel
This book regards the United States as a developing country and divides the development of American capitalism, which began when British colonists settled in North America in the 17th century and lasted until the Great Recession of the 21st century, into four eras: business, capital, control, and chaos. It not only shows the evolution of the American economy in a panoramic manner, but also depicts the economic life of Americans in the context of the times. In addition to demographic trends, trade patterns, investment preferences, and productivity indicators, the author also looks at Jefferson's disdain for the British, Thoreau's moral critique of business, labor violence movements, shopping malls in the 20th century, feminist critiques of marriage, the politics of income and distribution, and Obama's love-hate relationship with bankers.
