In the second half of the 20th century, many historians have either not used the concept at all, or only in passing. Many regarded the term as too broad, holistic and vague or too value-loaded, ideological and polemic. This volume brings together leading scholars to explore why the term has recently experienced a comeback and assess how useful the term can be in application to social and economic history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe contributors discuss whether and how the history of capitalism enables us to ask new questions, further explore unexhausted sources and discover new connections between previously unrelated phenomena. The chapters address case studies drawn from around the world, giving attention to Europe, Africa and beyond. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a timely reassessment of a crucial concept, which will be of great interest to scholars and students of economic history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJürgen Kocka \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor Emeritus at the Free University and the Social Science Center, Berlin, Germany, as well as a Permanent Fellow of the Center \"Work and Life Course in Global Historical Perspective\" at Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarcel van der Linden\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Fellow at the International Institute for Social History, holds a professorship at the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands and is President of the International Social History Association.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 296\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 22, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52488380907827,"sku":"9781350061552","price":95.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/0E7s_NSWRA9781350061552.webp?v=1759874066","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/capitalism-the-reemergence-of-a-historical-concept-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
