Zusammenfassung:The social structure of accumulation (SSA) approach seeks to explain the long-term fortunes of capitalist economies in terms of the effect of political and economic institutions on growth rates. This book offers an ideal introduction to this powerful tool for understanding capitalist growth, analyzing the social and economic differences between countries and the reasons for the successes and failures of institutional reform
The contributors cover a wide range of topics, including the theoretical basis of the SSA approach, the postwar financial system, Marxian and Keynesian theories of economic crisis, labor-management relations, race and gender issues, and the history of institutional innovation
Comprising newly written essays and classic articles of the SSA school, the book examines the international economy and the economies of Japan, South Africa, and Puerto Rico, as well as the United States, and will be an essential guide to the subject for students and specialists
