Phases of Capitalist Development: Booms, Crises and Globalizations

Rating:
Summary: Best collection on the topic!
Review: This is the best critical collection I've seen to date on the question of long boom and bust cycles. It allows side by side comparison of the major theories and breaks new ground in the case of a few schools of thought. The book also helps to place the fashionable debates on globalization, financial crisis, labor conditions, etc in a longer historical perspective. Writing is uneven but mostly fine....
