Publisher's Synopsis
""Legal Foundations of Capitalism"" by John Rogers Commons is a comprehensive study of the legal system that underpins capitalism. The book explores the role that law plays in shaping economic activity, and how legal institutions have evolved over time to support the development of capitalist economies. The author examines the legal framework of capitalism, including property law, contract law, and corporate law, and explores how these legal institutions have been shaped by historical, social, and political factors. He also discusses the ways in which the legal system interacts with other institutions, such as government and the market, to shape the economy. Throughout the book, Commons argues that law is not a neutral force in the economy, but rather plays an active role in shaping economic activity. He also highlights the importance of understanding the legal foundations of capitalism in order to develop policies that promote economic growth and social welfare. Overall, ""Legal Foundations of Capitalism"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the legal system that supports capitalist economies, and the ways in which it shapes economic activity and social outcomes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
