Omschrijving

The "Business & Economics Collection: Thorstein Veblen Edition" is an extensive anthology that gathers over thirty seminal works by Veblen, illuminating his critique of capitalism and consumer culture through a unique blend of sociological insight and economic theory. Veblen's incisive prose and satirical wit address the contradictions of modern capitalism, emphasizing concepts such as conspicuous consumption and the leisure class. This compilation features key texts that reflect the intellectual currents of the Progressive Era, highlighting Veblen's relevance in debates on economic inequality and societal values. Thorstein Veblen (1857-1929) was a pioneering American economist and sociologist whose critical perspective on capitalism sought to uncover the socio-economic motives behind individual and institutional behaviors. Raised in a Norwegian immigrant family in Wisconsin, Veblen's diverse education and experiences provided him with a rich tapestry of influences, blending elements of Darwinian evolution with Marxist thought. His commitment to social reform and sharp observations on economic phenomena uniquely positioned him as a foundational figure in institutional economics and critiques of capitalism. This collection is a must-read for scholars, students, and anyone intrigued by economic thought and its societal implications. Veblen's work invites readers to question the materialistic ethos of modernity, making it a timely exploration for contemporary audiences seeking deeper understanding in a world still grappling with the themes he so compellingly articulated.
