Summary

A succinct introduction to the history of capitalism by the renowned political theorist. 
In this short, highly readable book, the master of world-systems theory provides a succinct anatomy of capitalism over the past five hundred years. Considering the way capitalism has changed and evolved over the centuries, and what has remained constant, he outlines its chief characteristics. In particular, he looks at the emergence and development of a world market, and of labor; in doing so, he argues that capitalism has brought about immiseration in the Global South. As long as they remain within a framework of world capitalism, Wallerstein concludes, the economic and social problems of developing countries will remain unresolved. Historical Capitalism, published here with its companion essay Capitalist Civilization, is a concise, compelling beginners’ guide to one of the most challenging and influential assessments of capitalism as a world-historic mode of production.

    A school of thought advocates that the quality of the products and services offered is the most singular factor necessary for a business to advance its prospects. The proponents of this approach believe that once the quality of goods and services is top-notch, the client will be happy. They advocate that a satisfied customer will return to order for more of such services or goods. While that may be true, a novel emerging approach notes that although the quality of products and services is crucial, it is not enough to keep a business floating. A business grows, develops, and becomes profitable as its revenue base expands. A satisfied customer will come back, but with marketing strategies in place, one happy customer can reach and persuade 50 others. Thus, excellent quality must go hand-in-hand with an efficient marketing system to boost a business by creating a wide range of customer outreach.

    Like most lawyers, I have had others attach labels to me over the years, including: (a) the baby faced assassin (b) the lawyer to get when you don’t want to deal with a lawyer (c) the ‘www’ (why the wealthy win) guy. The one that has meant the most to me was coined by a small business operator I helped guarantee she survived and ultimately prospered during a difficult start up phase. She called me ‘The Dream Enabler’. This book shares many of the key learnings I have been fortunate to discover while having unprecedented access to some of Australia’s most successful people. As set out in the foreword to ‘The Dream Enabler’ book, for as long as I can remember, the obsessive study of great thinkers has been my favourite pastime. This Reference Guide is designed to be a companion to The Dream Enabler book. It provides a framework to explore and achieve momentum in relation to each of the key concepts, leveraging the foundations explained in detail in The Dream Enabler.
