Book excerpt: " Dans cette esquisse, nous ne nous sommes nullement proposé d'écrire une histoire générale du capitalisme. Nous avons encore bien moins eu le dessein de tenter un essai sociologique. Est-il besoin de dire qu'en aucune façon, ce modeste essai ne peut avoir la prétention de rivaliser avec l'oeuvre monumentale du professeur W. Sombart, Der moderne Kapitalismus, qui se recommande par son érudition, si étendue, bien que parfois un peu trouble, et surtout par ses vues si suggestives ?Notre dessein a été simplement de réunir, d'une façon synthétique, un certain nombre de données historiques, vraiment sûres, élaborées surtout en vue des services qu'elles pourraient rendre à la sociologie et à l'économie politique. C'est, en un mot, un essai de synthèse et d'histoire comparée, écrit sans aucun parti-pris politique, ni social. Nous avons tenté de nous rendre compte de la grande évolution économique et sociale, qui a abouti, au XIXe siècle, au triomphe du capitalisme et de la grande industrie..." H.S.

Book excerpt: Ce livre traite de l'histoire du capitalisme et son evolution dans la societe moderne. Qu'entend-on par l'expression: capitalisme moderne? "Certains ecrivains pretendent que le capitalisme est ne des que s'est developpee la richesse mobiliere. Le capitalisme aurait donc existe deja dans le monde antique, non seulement chez les Romains et chez les Grecs, mais dans des societes plus anciennes, qui ont pratique d'actives tractations commerciales. Mais il s'agit en ce cas, si capitalisme il y a, d'un capitalisme purement commercial et financier. Dans le monde antique, le capitalisme ne s'est jamais applique a l'industrie; chez les Grecs et meme chez les Romains, on ne trouve que de petits metiers, travaillant pour des marches locaux, et surtout une main-d'oeuvre servile, qui a pour fonction de subvenir aux besoins de la familia, comme c'est le cas sur les latifundia romains... Dans la pratique, le mot capital est ne assez tard et il a uniquement designe la somme destinee a etre placee (invested, comme disent les Anglais) et a rapporter un interet. C'est sans doute par extension que les economistes ont donne au mot le sens qui a prevalu dans la science economique. Le capital est ne du jour ou la richesse mobiliere s'est developpee, principalement sous la forme d'especes monnayees. L'accumulation des capitaux a ete une condition necessaire de la genese du capitalisme, et elle s'est accentuee de plus en plus, a partir du XVIe siecle, mais elle n'a pas suffi pour achever la formation de la societe capitaliste. Ce sont les formes du capitalisme commercial et du capitalisme financier qui se sont dessinees les premieres. Mais, pour que l'evolution fut achevee, il a fallu une transformation de toute l'organisation du travail, des relations entre employeurs et employes, laquelle a eu pour effet d'exercer sur les classes sociales l'action la plus profonde qu'on ait jamais pu observer jusqu'alors. Aussi le triomphe de l'organisation capitaliste n'est-il pas anterieur au XIXe siecle, et meme, presque partout, a la seconde moitie de ce siecle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frank H. Knight (1885-1972) was a central figure—many say the dominant influence—in the development of the "Chicago School of Economics" at the University of Chicago in the 1930s and 1940s, where he taught future Nobel laureates Milton Friedman, James Buchanan, George Stigler, and many other notable scholars. It was Knight's embedded skepticism about the reach of economic knowledge that set the stage for the laissez-faire economics that matured at the University in the 1950s and 1960s. But as important as Knight's technical economic contributions were, he never strayed far from his broad philosophical interests and concern for the state of modern liberal democracy. Ross B. Emmett's selection of Knight's essays is the first to offer a comprehensive picture of the work of this notable social scientist over the span of his career. Included are not only Knight's most influential writings, but also a number of uncollected papers which have not previously been widely accessible. These essays illustrate Knight's views on the central debates regarding economics, social science, ethics, education, and modern liberalism. Volume 1: "What is Truth" in Economics? contains fifteen of Knight's papers up through 1940. Volume 2: Laissez Faire: Pro and Con includes fourteen of Knight's papers from 1940 through 1967, including "Socialism: The Nature of the Problem" and "The Sickness of Liberal Society." These twenty-nine essays together stand not only as a monument to one of economics' most significant and original thinkers, but will also serve as an invaluable resource for economists, philosophers, and political scientists interested in the development of the western liberal tradition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1930, Columbia University appointed Salo Baron to be the Nathan L. Miller Professor of Jewish History, Literature, and Institutions—marking a turning point in the history of Jewish studies in America. Baron not only became perhaps the most accomplished scholar of Jewish history in the twentieth century, the author of many books including the eighteen-volume A Social and Religious History of the Jews. He also created a program and a discipline, mentoring hundreds of scholars, establishing major institutions including the first academic center to study Israel in the United States, building Columbia’s Judaica collection, intervening as a public intellectual, and exerting an unparalleled influence on what it meant to study the Jewish past. This book brings together leading scholars to consider how Baron transformed the course of Jewish studies in the United States. From a variety of perspectives, they reflect on his contributions to the study of Jewish history, literature, and culture, as well as his scholarship, activism, and mentorship. Among many distinguished contributors, David Sorkin engages with Baron’s arguments on Jewish emancipation; Francesca Trivellato puts him in conversation with economic history; David Engel examines his use of anti-Semitism as an analytical category; Deborah Lipstadt explores his testimony at the trial of Adolf Eichmann; and Robert Chazan and Jane Gerber, both once Baron’s doctoral students, offer personal and intellectual reminiscences. Together, they testify to Baron’s singular legacy in shaping Jewish studies in America.

Download or read book The Transition to Capitalism in Modern France written by Xavier Lafrance and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-03 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians, since the 1960s, argue that the French economy performed as well as did any economy in Europe during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries thanks to the opportunities for profit available on the market, especially the large consumer market in Paris. Whatever economic weaknesses existed did not stem from the social structure but from exogenous forces such as wars, the lack of natural resources or slow demographic growth. This book challenges the foregoing consensus by showing that the French economy performed poorly relative to its rivals because of noncapitalist social relations. Specifically, peasants and artisans controlled lands and workshops in autonomous communities and did not have to improve labor productivity to survive. Merchants and manufacturers cornered markets instead of being subject to the market’s competitive imperatives. Thus, distinctive features of capitalism—primitive accumulation (the dispossession of peasants and artisans) and the competitive obligation faced by merchants and manufacturers to reinvest profits in order to keep the profits—did not prevail until the state imposed them in a process lasting for a century after the 1850s. For this reason, it was not until the 1960s that France caught up to (and in some cases surpassed) its economic rivals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As was the case in many other countries, it was only in the early years of this century that Greek and Turkish labour historians began to systematically look beyond national borders to investigate their intricately interrelated histories. The studies in Working in Greece and Turkey provide an overdue exploration of labour history on both sides of the Aegean, before as well as after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Deploying the approaches of global labour history as a framework, this volume presents transnational, transcontinental, and diachronic comparisons that illuminate the shared history of Greece and Turkey.
