In Search of Stability

Exploring the challenges faced by Western industrial societies in the twentieth century, this collection of essays delves into the ideological influences of American policies on post-war Europe and examines the economic ideologies of Nazi Germany and Italian fascism. It compares their achievements to those of liberal democracies and investigates the dynamics between productivity, class division, and inflation driven by class and interest-group rivalries. The work ultimately reflects on the representation of interests within capitalist political economies.
