Ever since the inception of capitalism in 16th century Europe, the capitalist system was plagued by the recurring crises, with each subsequent crisis being more severe than the predecessor. Can we call the current crisis "the mother of all crises"? And how did we end up with capitalism after almost 2,000 years of workshop economy in medieval Europe? Were there big scale manufacturing facilities during the times of the Roman Empire? Was it even possible to organize massive industrial production in ancient Roman Empire? Mikhail Khazin a renowned Russian economist will provide answers to all these questions in his first ever English language book Crisis of Capital Effectiveness. Mr. Khazin will also share his insights on the issue that has been the cornerstone of the Marxist philosophy - the finiteness of capitalism. Is capitalism finite? Is there a limit to its development? What comes next after globalization? Does the current crisis mean there will be no more globalism? And how did Trump become the US president? You will find all the answers inside this book.
