Annotated Bibliography About Capitalism

Joseph Kaminski (October 30th, 2013) Capitalism and Industrial Revolution World Press.

Joseph's book offers a critical overview of the possible causes of the industrial revolution. The article answers the question of whether capitalists contributed to the industrial revolution. It provides concrete reasons and relevant examples to support the idea that capitalists were the leading cause of the industrial revolution. There is a controversy that the most crucial purpose of the industrial revolution is the Agricultural revolution. However, the article disagrees with such facts and accept that the industrial revolution came as a result of the rise of many capitalists. The item is right and can be used in other research projects as it contains valuable fact.

Germander K Bambra (2007). Myths of industrial capitalism. Palgrave Macmillan, London.

Barbara's book reviews a fundamental concept of the industrial revolution. It is majorly concerned with how the industrial revolution transformed the organization of economic activities in the world. The book discusses all the false arguments concerning the industrial revolution and capitalism. The article has beautiful illustrations about the history of the industrial revolution and the impact on the structure of the economic activity. The report takes into account the industrial development of the traditional century. Step by step to the modern world. It supports the idea that to become current, a country must go through the industrialization process. The book is good as it provides a better insight into industrialization. However, it does not include the causes of manufacturing and the relationship between industrialization and capitalism. The works of Bambra have vital information about capitalism and mythical arguments of various individuals; thus, it is an essential document for future research.

Nicholas Kador (01 June 1977), Capitalism and industrial development. Academic Press Inc. (London) Limited.

Nicholas, in his book, urges that economic development theories of the orthodox did not have sufficient information about essential questions of capitalism and industrial development. He, therefore, answers several questions that historians never answered; for example, he explains the difference between capitalism and industrialization. The article reviews economic development throughout history and the impact of capitalists on economic growth. The report contains excellent illustrations of the factors that contribute to economic development and therefore preferred for future research in the field of economics.

John D. Scores (Aug 3, 2006), Confusing Capitalism with Industrialization. Gist Magazine, Inc.

John, in his article, provides a clear understanding of capitalism and industrialization. He realizes that many individuals still do not understand the difference between manufacturing and capitalism. John disagrees with environmentalists and explains the distinction between the two concepts. He goes further to explain the impact that each concept have on each other. John wrote an excellent article that should be adopted by researchers as it reduces the confusion about the two ideas; capitalism and industrialization.

Sundararajan, A. (2016). The Sharing Economy: The end of employment and the rise of crowd-based capitalism. MIT Press.

Sundararajan, in his book, provides an in-depth understanding of the sharing economy. He decides his book into two logical parts, cause and effect. The book has eight chapters, each particular addressing topics related to capitalism and industrialization. He gives the readers enough information about the chronological development of industries in various parts of the world. He identifies the characteristics of the sharing economy and explains the factors contributing to crowd-based capitalism. He describes the value of truth in any economy by providing related examples, thus making the article very valuable for future research on the subjects; economy and capitalism

Marfany, J. (2016). Land, proto-industry, and population in Catalonia, c. 1680-1829: an alternative transition to capitalism. Routledge.

This article delves into explaining the key aspects that led to capitalism in Europe. Marfany notes, "The nuclear family of north-western Europe was a superior model for industrialization than the more extended family structures prevalent in southern Europe." The extended families that led to the rise of the population were subjects of agrarian capitalism which was considered as an outdated form of agricultural production. I agree with the argument of this article because they clearly explain the transformation of capitalism in Europe.

Lloyd-Jones, R., & Lewis, M. (2014). British industrial capitalism since the industrial revolution. Routledge.

The article displays challenging and distinguishing lucrative antiquity of modern and present-day Britain. This article revolves around the problem Britain's industrial economy faced when its industrial production reduced by 10 percent. The author notes that "the industrial production was particularly rooted in the staple, primarily export-oriented, industries of Britain which included cotton textiles, steel, mechanical engineering and shipbuilding," (143). I agree with this article's arguments because it presents an illuminating discussion of how the British economy expanded as a result of industrialization and capitalism.

Hall, P. A. (2015). Varieties of capitalism. Emerging Trends in the Social and Behavioral Sciences: An Interdisciplinary, Searchable, and Linkable Resource, 1-15.

This article delves into an exploration of varieties of capitalism which explains the procedures in which the systems designing the political economy influence patterns of lucrative performance or the administration of welfare and strategy-planning. The article accounts that, "there is one best route to superior economic performance and a number of schemas have been proposed to explain why countries have often been able to secure substantial rates of growth in different ways, often with relatively egalitarian distributions of income," (5). I agree to the arguments presented in this article because the approach used has stimulated new research on various disciplines such as the behavior of institutional alteration.

Conclusion

In conclusion, I will specifically use Sundararajan (2016) article for the final research project, which states that "trust has generated positive spillover effects by putting underused assets to work and expanding economic opportunity," (57). Trust is important for a sharing and a growing economy.
