Description: "The competition between different models of capitalism in the world is one of the most important issues of the contemporary debate in economics and politics. This book provides the reader with theoretical foundations for this debate. It offers an introduction to central economic scholars of capitalism and of the market economy, coming not only from the tradition of liberalism, but also from alternative traditions. The book gives a comprehensive view of the achievements, problems, and outlooks of capitalism."--Jacket.
