Weber, Schumpeter and Modern Capitalism

- Towards a General Theory

About Weber, Schumpeter and Modern Capitalism

This book provides the groundwork for a general theory of modern capitalism by reinterpreting Max Weber¿s work on the origins and institutional underpinnings of modern capitalism, and Joseph Schumpeter¿s thought on the mechanisms and functioning of the capitalist economy. Focusing on the lesser known works of both figures, particularly in the case of Weber, whose writings on economics and economic history are frequently overlooked, the author contends that a combination of Schumpeter¿s and Weber¿s theoretical schemas, incorporating their many valuable insights, provides the basis of a unified, overall theory of modern capitalism that is comprehensive, coherent and persuasive.
