Capitalism

An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

The magnum opus of the Scottish economist and moral philosopher Adam Smith. Published in 1776, the book offers one of the world's first collected descriptions of what builds nations9; wealth, and is today a fundamental work in classical economics. By reflecting upon the economics at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the book touches upon such broad topics as the division of labour, productivity, and free markets.

The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism

Written by Max Weber, a German sociologist, economist, and politician. It is considered a founding text in economic sociology and sociology in general. Weber wrote that capitalism in Northern Europe evolved when the Protestant ethic influenced people to engage in the secular world, developing enterprises and engaging in trade and the accumulation of wealth. In other words, the Protestant work ethic was an important force behind the unplanned and uncoordinated emergence of modern capitalism.

North and South

A social novel published in 1855 by English writer Elizabeth Gaskell. North and South uses a protagonist from southern England to present and comment on the perspectives of mill owners and workers in an industrialising city. The novel exposes the complexity of labor relations and their impact on mill owners and workers.

This is one of many books in the series 3 Books To Know.
