What is capitalism? Is capitalism the same everywhere? Is there an alternative?

The word "capitalism" is one that is heard and used frequently, but what is capitalism really all about, and what does it mean? This Very Short Introduction addresses questions such as, "what is capital?" before discussing the history and development of capitalism through several detailed case studies, ranging from the tulipomania of 17th century Holland, the Great Depression of the 1930s, and in this new edition, the impact of the global financial crisis that started in 2007-08.

James Fulcher looks at the different forms that capitalism takes in Britain, Japan, Sweden, and the United States, and explores whether capitalism has escaped the nation-state by going global. It ends by asking whether there is an alternative to capitalism, discussing socialism, communal and cooperative experiments, and the alternatives proposed by environmentalists.

“全球性资本主义”这一概念也产生了具有重要影响的、误导性的神话。神话一：全球性资本主义是新近产物。这种说法是错误的，因为全球性资本主义有悠久的历史渊源。神话二：资本在全球范围内流动。事实上，大多数资本只在一小部分富裕国家之间流动。神话三：资本主义的组织形式...

文章的特点是没有把资本主义相关的各方对立起来，而恰恰是相关各方的自我满足产生的行为和结果导致了一个动态的资本主义社会的存在，这颇符合大自然的一些规矩，互相制约，所不同的是，大自然是适可而止的中庸之道，而人类的你争我夺也是你死我活的偏执，这是对欲望的无限需求...
