Capitalism
Title Capitalism : a global history / Sven Beckert Author Beckert, Sven, 1965- (Author) Publication New York : Penguin Press, 2025 Scope xv, 1325 stran : ilustrace, mapy, portréty, faksimile ; 25 cm Country United States Language English Note Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy a rejstřík Annotation "Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism’s radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics. Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn’t merely add up capitalism’s debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future." --Cover Výrazy tezauru tržní ekonomika * globalizace * dějiny Klasifikační znaky 1621 - Hospodářská struktura 1606 - Hospodářská politika ISBN 978-0-241-26905-3 Copy count 1, currently available 0 Document kind Monografie Call number Location Info F 93337 PSS - Poslanecká sněmovna vypůjčený (until 20.07.2026)
