Hardback. Zustand: New. Intellectuals since the Industrial Revolution have been obsessed with whether, when, and why capitalism will collapse. This riveting account of two centuries of failed forecasts of doom reveals the key to capitalism's durability.Prophecies about the end of capitalism are as old as capitalism itself. None have come true. Yet, whether out of hope or fear, we keep looking for harbingers of doom. In Foretelling the End of Capitalism, Francesco Boldizzoni gets to the root of the human need to imagine a different and better world and offers a compelling solution to the puzzle of why capitalism has been able to survive so many shocks and setbacks.Capitalism entered the twenty-first century triumphant, its communist rival consigned to the past. But the Great Recession and worsening inequality have undermined faith in its stability and revived questions about its long-term prospects. Is capitalism on its way out? If so, what might replace it? And if it does endure, how will it cope with future social and environmental crises and the inevitable costs of creative destruction? Boldizzoni shows that these and other questions have stood at the heart of much analysis and speculation from the early socialists and Karl Marx to the Occupy Movement. Capitalism has survived predictions of its demise not, as many think, because of its economic efficiency or any intrinsic virtues of markets but because it is ingrained in the hierarchical and individualistic structure of modern Western societies.Foretelling the End of Capitalism takes us on a fascinating journey through two centuries of unfulfilled prophecies. An intellectual tour de force and a plea for political action, it will change our understanding of the economic system that determines the fabric of our lives.

An intellectual tour de force and a plea for political action, it will change our understanding of the economic system that determines the fabric of our lives. The end of capitalism is always around the corner. Why do we keep predicting its demise, and how has it survived so many external shocks and internal contradictions? Francesco Boldizzoni traces the history of a prophecy unrealized and identifies the source of capitalisms durability: its rootedness in Western social hierarchies and individualism.

Hardback. Zustand: New. The Poverty of Clio challenges the hold that cliometrics--an approach to economic history that employs the analytical tools of economists--has exerted on the study of our economic past. In this provocative book, Francesco Boldizzoni calls for the reconstruction of economic history, one in which history and the social sciences are brought to bear on economics, and not the other way around. Boldizzoni questions the appeal of economics over history--which he identifies as a distinctly American attitude--exposing its errors and hidden ideologies, and revealing how it fails to explain economic behavior itself. He shows how the misguided reliance on economic reasoning to interpret history has come at the expense of insights from the humanities and has led to a rejection of valuable past historical research. Developing a better alternative to new institutional economics and the rational choice approach, Boldizzoni builds on the extraordinary accomplishments of twentieth-century European historians and social thinkers to offer fresh ideas for the renewal of the field.Economic history needs to rediscover the true relationship between economy and culture, and promote an authentic alliance with the social sciences, starting with sociology and anthropology. It must resume its dialogue with the humanities, but without shrinking away from theory when constructing its models. The Poverty of Clio demonstrates why history must exert its own creative power on economics.

Rustica (tapa blanda). Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Nuevo. 01. El capitalismo entró triunfante en el si glo XXI y su rival comunista quedó re legado al pasado. Pero la gran recesión y el incremento de la desigualdad han socavado la fe en su estabilidad, reavi vando los interrogantes sobre sus pers pectivas a largo plazo. Está el capita lismo en vías de desaparición? Si es así, qué podría sustituirlo? Y si perdura, cómo afrontará las futuras crisis so ciales y medioambientales y los inevi tables costes de la destrucción creati va? Francesco Boldizzoni muestra que estas y otras preguntas han estado en el centro de muchos análisis y especula ciones desde los primeros socialistas y Karl Marx hasta la actualidad. El capita lismo ha sobrevivido a las predicciones de su desaparición no, como muchos piensan, por su eficiencia económica o por las virtudes intrínsecas de los mer cados, sino porque está arraigado en la estructura jerárquica e individualista de las sociedades occidentales modernas. Imaginando el fin del capitalismo nos lleva a un fascinante viaje a través de dos siglos de profecías incumplidas. Un tour de force intelectual y un llama miento a la acción polític. LIBRO.

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Encuadernación: Rústica con solapas Colección: Libros de Historia La enseñanza de la historia, ha dicho Anthony Grafton, se encuentra hoy marginada, como un saber sin utilidad alguna. Lo cual contrasta con el interés que el público culto muestra por los buenos libros de historia, y con la necesidad de renovar nuestro conocimiento del pasado en un momento en que han fallado las visiones tradicionales que interpretaban la evolución de la humanidad como el relato de un progreso continuado. Francesco Boldizzoni, que sostiene que buena parte de este desprestigio se debe a aquellos historiadores que se dedicaron a servir al orden establecido con métodos destinados a elaborar narrativas del pasado compatibles con la ideología neoliberal, nos ofrece una interesantísima revisión crítica de la historiografía de estas últimas décadas, familiarizándonos con títulos que han influido poderosamente en el mundo de las ideas, pero que no han llegado al público general, al que no estaban destinados, y nos propone nuevas formas de aproximarnos al pasado, recuperando la mejor tradición de la historia social. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
