The Power of Capitalism: A Journey Through Recent History Across Five Continents

The market has failed, we need more government intervention” – that’s the mantra politicians, the media and intellectuals have been reiterating constantly ever since the outbreak of the 2008 financial crisis. By taking the reader on a journey across continents and through recent history, Rainer Zitelmann disproves this call for greater government intervention and demonstrates that capitalism matters more than ever.

The author provides compelling evidence from across the world that capitalism has been the solution to a number of massive problems. He compares developments in West and East Germany, North and South Korea, capitalist Chile v. Socialist Venezuela, and analyses the extraordinary economic rise of China. For many people, capitalism is a dirty word. This book provides a timely reminder of capitalism’s power in enabling growth and prosperity, and in alleviating poverty.

Zitelmann’s book is a must-read for both opponents and proponents of capitalism. With such a wealth of well-researched facts ad figures, this book predsents a real challege to anti-capitalists. Supporters of which have never been summarized and presented in this way before.
