Inhaltsangabe

This award-winning text explores one of the most successful cultures and society the world has ever seen ― capitalism. Now available with a free online reader.

From its European roots more than 500 years ago to the present, the text examines the problems of capitalism's expansion, inequality, environmental destruction, and social unrest.

Global Problems and the Culture of Capitalism provides the reader with the anthropological, economic, and historical framework to understand the origins of global problems, why globalization and the global expansion of the culture of capitalism has generated protest and resistance, and the steps that are necessary to solve global problems. As one reviewer said, “This is a book that will doubtless create debate and controversy, but its topic should be pondered seriously by all who consider themselves citizens of our world society today.”
