Free enterprise is off the leash and is chasing opportunities for profit making across the globe. Challenging the notion of capitalist destiny, this text questions whether capitalism really has brought the levels of economic growth and prosperity that were hoped for.

Capitalism Unleashed

Fellow and Tutor in Economics Andrew Glyn

Never has the Left held power in so many advanced economies, yet the difference this makes to economic policy proves hard to specify. This book is the first to examine in detail the successes and failures of governments across Europe and Australasia to chart distinctive courses in the face of the neoliberal backlash against state intervention, the welfare state, and guaranteed full employment.

This book charts the development of capitalism in the post-war period and describes the challenges that the system has faced since 1945. It describes the measures that were taken to deal with the post-war slump and the ways in which most capitalist economies achieved steady growth and affluence in the 1950s and 1960s. It goes on to show how this boom was undermined by unemployment ensued.
