About the Book
In Capitalism and Commerce, Edward Younkins provides a clear and accessible introduction to the best moral and economic arguments for capitalism. Drawn from over a decade of business school teaching, Younkins's work offers the student of political economy and the educated layperson a clear, systematic treatment of the philosophical concepts that underpin the idea of capitalism and the business, legal and political institutions that impact commercial enterprises. Divided into seven parts, the work discusses capitalism and morality; individuals, community rights and the role of the state; private and corporate ownership; entrepreneurship and technological progress; law, justice and corporate governance; and the obstacles to a free market and limited government.
