“Joseph Schumpeter’s classic Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy explains the process of capitalism’s ‘creative destruction’ — a key principle in understanding the logic of globalization.” — Thomas L. Friedman, Foreign Policy

Schumpeter introduced the world to the concept of “creative destruction,” which forever altered how global economics is approached and perceived. Now featuring a new introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning Schumpeter biographer Thomas K. McCraw, Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand where the world economy is headed.
