Description

Understand the deep cycles of economic change that shape our world. This book examines how periodic shifts reorder the way we work, the organization of business and markets, the role of government, and the nature of politics. By looking at American history, the text explores how these transformations are driven by waves of new technology. Readers will learn how the development of electricity and cheap steel in the 1890s built a new, factory-based economy. The book also covers the 1940s and 1950s, when automation and advances in electronics and chemicals established a national corporate, mass-production era. If we want to understand and control our economic future, we must first understand these historical processes of change. This work provides the necessary context to navigate the evolving landscape of global markets and economic growth.
