"The History of the Standard Oil Company" is an exposé about the Standard Oil Company, run by oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller, the richest figure in American history. The inspiration behind this book was largely fueled by author's childhood experiences. Her father worked for Standard Oil and lived through what she called "hate, suspicion, and fear that engulfed the community." As a direct witness to the schemes and horizontal integration of John D. Rockefeller and his associates, Ida Tarbell began building the foundations of "The History of the Standard Oil Company" early on, using her own discontent as a starting point. This book inspired many other journalists to write about trusts and large businesses that attempted to gain monopolies in various industries.

In "Imperial Germany &amp; the Industrial Revolution," Thorstein Veblen offers a profound analysis of the interplay between industrialization and the emergence of modern imperial dynamics in Germany during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Employing his characteristic incisive wit and sociological lens, Veblen critiques the economic behaviors that facilitated the rise of a capitalist society, which he argues was inextricably linked to militarism and imperial expansion. His stylistic approach is marked by a blend of empirical evidence and theoretical inquiry, situating the text within the broader context of American pragmatism and European economic thought, making it a seminal work for understanding the socio-economic transformations of this pivotal era. Veblen, an influential economist and social philosopher, was deeply engaged with the cultural and institutional factors that shape economic phenomena. His experiences growing up in the rapidly industrializing United States informed his critical perspective on capitalism and its societal implications. Veblen's reflections on leisure, consumption, and class conflict shaped his analytical framework, making this work a critical commentary on the pitfalls of modernity and industrial expansion. "Imperial Germany &amp; the Industrial Revolution" is essential reading for those interested in economic history, sociology, and political theory. It invites readers to grapple with the complexities of capitalism and its consequences, encouraging critical thought about contemporary industrial societies and their imperial legacies.

Capital: The Process of Capitalist Production as a Whole (Summarized Edition)

Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy

The Progressive Era is generally regarded as a period of extraordinary social, political, and economic change, affecting virtually every aspect of American life. In the last decades of the nineteenth century, American social scientists, drawing on their experiences with the German social welfare system, became increasingly interested not merely in identifying problems, but in prescribing means by which to effect social change. This book is an effort to identify the various influences upon critical thinkers, and to examine their approaches to solving the social problems of the time.

This book identifies the basic premises underlying the philosophies of the Progressive Eraspecifically as they relate to the Progressives’ desire for directed social change.

Order and Control in American Socio-Economic Thought

Karl Marx's 'Capital' is a seminal work of political economy that comprises all three volumes of his magnum opus. In this comprehensive analysis, Marx delves into the intricacies of capitalism, exploring its historical development, social impact, and inherent contradictions. Written in a dense and scholarly style, the book is a foundational text of Marxist theory and a cornerstone of socialist thought. Through rigorous economic analysis and historical critique, Marx exposes the exploitative nature of capitalism and calls for a revolutionary transformation of society. 'Capital' is not only a critique of the capitalist system but also a call to action for a more just and equitable society. Karl Marx, a German philosopher and economist, was deeply influenced by the social injustices and economic inequalities of his time. His extensive research and revolutionary ideas laid the groundwork for the development of communism as a political ideology. Drawing on his background in philosophy and his observations of industrial society, Marx sought to provide a comprehensive critique of capitalism and offer a vision for a socialist alternative. I recommend 'Capital' to readers interested in understanding the foundational principles of Marxist theory and the critique of capitalism. Marx's rigorous analysis and profound insights make this work essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the social and economic structures that shape our world.

CAPITAL (All 3 Books)

The acceleration of Earth's spin begins gradually. At first, days are just a few seconds shorter than normal. Awareness of the mysterious phenomenon hasn't reached Tanner, a young man who flees his Alaskan hometown to work at CWC, a corporation which runs a network of massive aircraft that orbit the Earth, allowing people to visit Paris for an evening or order sushi from Japan. But a wave of social unrest presents challenges for CWC. That unrest sweeps up Winnie. A high school outcast, she falls in with a group of teen activists who blame the company for the planet's acceleration. As days on Earth quicken to twenty-three hours, then twenty, the sun rising and setting ever faster, causing violent storms and political meltdowns, Tanner and Winnie's stories spiral closer together. Three-hour days. Two-hour days . . . A propulsive exploration of capitalism, technology, and our place within a system that dwarfs us, Circular Motion is one of the most ingenious debut novels of our time.

Capital: The Process of Capitalist Production as a Whole was prepared by Friedrich Engels from notes left by Karl Marx and published in 1894. Das Kapital is best known today for this part, which says that as the organic fixed capital requirements of production rise as a result of advancements in production generally, the rate of profit tends to fall.&#13;Karl Marx (1818–1883) was a famous German philosopher, economist, historian, political theorist, sociologist, journalist and revolutionary socialist.

This carefully crafted ebook: "The Vested Interests and the Common Man &amp; An Inquiry into the Nature of Peace and the Terms of Its Perpetuation" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.&#13;The Vested Interests and The Nature of Peace are two books by Thorstein Veblen that go hand in hand. Veblen's main critique in The Vested Interests and the Common Man that business prospers by limiting supply in order to allow capitalists to dictate the highest possible prices, making theirs and interests of the government clearly in the opposition to the interests of the common man. Veblen goes further stating that not only that common man doesn't profit, but he is also damaged in this relationship considering social repercussions of capitalistic industry.&#13;An Inquiry into the Nature of Peace and the Terms of Its Perpetuation is a Veblen's book that came as a product of his work with a group that had been commissioned by President Woodrow Wilson to analyze possible peace settlements for World War I. Veblen here claims that patriotism is based on the idea of superiority of one nation over others and is often abused by governments especially in imperial monarchies. He explicitly says that the peace between democratic states and imperial monarchies can't be kept without disbanding one form of government and these claims were later confirmed. Working on this book marked a series of distinct changes in Veblen's later career path.&#13;Thorstein Veblen (1857-1929) was an American economist and sociologist. He is well known as a witty critic of capitalism. Veblen is famous for the idea of "conspicuous consumption." Conspicuous consumption, along with "conspicuous leisure," is performed to demonstrate wealth or mark social status. Veblen explains the concept in his best-known book, The Theory of the Leisure Class. Within the history of economic thought, Veblen is considered the leader of the institutional economics movement.&#13;
