Synopsis

"In The Origin of Capitalism, Ellen Meiksins Wood challenges most existing accounts of capitalism's origins, arguing that they fail to recognize its distinctive attributes as a social system by making its emergence seem natural and inevitable."--BOOK JACKET. "Only with a proper understanding of capitalism's beginning, Wood holds, can we imagine the possibility of it ending."--BOOK JACKET.
