Description: Capitalism and Democracy : A Fragile Alliance, Hardcover by Van De Klundert, Theo, ISBN 1781956154, ISBN-13 9781781956151, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK Klundert (economics, Tilburg U., the Netherlands) examines the relationship between capitalism and democracy in terms of how economic activity and political decision-making are parts of the same institution (. political economy). He takes it as a given that "capitalist accumulation accompanied by Darwinian competition has brought a high level of welfare to the Western world," but wants to know why it still generates inequalities, how these are affected or not by regulation or its absence, and how this affects democratic institutions (defined in terms of Western capitalist democracies) and the building of them. Th is organized into two sections that mirror each other: economic theory in a historical perspective and historical developments in a theoretical perspective. He is also concerned with how economic-backwardness happens and what regulatory regimes could do to advance both their economies and tendencies toward democracy.
