Joseph Schumpeter (1883-1950) is one of the most fascinating and influential economists of the twentieth century, renowned for his brilliant and unorthodox insights into the nature of capitalism. His students include leading economists such as Paul Samuelson, Robert Solow and the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan. The Theory of Economic Development is one of Schumpeter's most important books and the one that made him famous. He poses a fundamental question: why does economic development proceed cyclically rather than evenly? Turning prevailing economic theory, which approached economics as equilibrium, on its head, Schumpeter argues it is because economics is constantly transformed by its own internal forces. These forces are the 'circular flow' of economic life; economic development, characterised by disruption and innovation; and finally, the levers that push and pull capitalism including credit, profit and interest. These are all manifested in the business cycle', one of Schumpeter's major contributions to understanding economics and now a perennial feature of virtually all economics and business curricula. He is also the first economist to place the entrepreneur at the heart of capitalism, anticipating subsequent fascination with entrepreneurship in popular business and management writing. Schumpeter also lays the groundwork for his subsequent, highly influential idea of the 'creative destruction' characteristic of radical and rapid economic change. The Theory of Economic Development remains a vital, magisterial account of economics and the nature of capitalism whose many insights remain highly relevant today. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Introduction by Richard Swedberg

Kapitalismus, Sozialismus und Demokratie
Mit einer Einführung von Heinz D. Kurz
„Kann der Kapitalismus weiterleben? Nein, meines Erachtens nicht.“ Schumpeters Beschäftigung mit dem Sozialismus hat nicht zuletzt angesichts des schier unaufhaltsamen Aufstiegs Chinas nichts an Aktualität eingebüßt. Er wagt die Auseinandersetzung mit großen gesellschaftspolitischen Fragen im Sinne einer histoire raisonnée als Schlüssel zum Verständnis geschichtlicher Prozesse. Die 10. Auflage enthält erstmals auch Teil V des Werks, in dem Schumpeter Gemeinsamkeiten, vor allem aber Unterschiede zwischen sozialistischen Strömungen und Parteien in Europa, Russland und den USA herausarbeitet und den Aufstieg der Sowjetunion kritisch erörtert. Eine Einführung in Schumpeters Thesen und deren Verortung in der zeitgenössischen und aktuellen Diskussion sowie eine Auswahlbibliografie erleichtern den Zugang zu diesem Standardwerk. Dieser Klassiker der Gesellschaftswissenschaften liegt in der 10. Auflage nunmehr erstmals vollständig übersetzt vor.

Joseph Schumpeter zählt unbestritten zu den bedeutendsten Ökonomen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Seine These, der Kapitalismus beruhe auf »schöpferischer Zerstörung«, ist mittlerweile zu einem geflügelten Wort geworden und mit seinem Buch Kapitalismus, Sozialismus und Demokratie hat er die Schule der »ökonomischen Theorie der Politik« begründet. Weniger bekannt sind bisher Schumpeters Aufsätze zu Fragen der Ökonomie und Soziologie, unter denen sich einige bahnbrechende Studien befinden, die gerade im Rahmen der neueren Auseinandersetzung um das Verhältnis von Wirtschaft, Gesellschaft und Politik im Zuge der globalen Finanzkrise von erneuter Relevanz sind. Der Band versammelt eine Auswahl dieser Aufsätze, teilweise zum ersten Mal in deutscher Übersetzung, und wird von Lisa Herzog und Axel Honneth mit einem Nachwort begleitet.

¿Es posible valorar imparcialmente la teoría de Marx? ¿Puede sobrevivir el capitalismo? ¿Puede funcionar el socialismo? Estamos ante el primero de los dos volúmenes de uno de los ensayos más influyentes del siglo XX, una obra de teoría social que trasciende las disciplinas particulares y cruza con total libertad los límites tradicionales de la economía, la historia, la ciencia política, la sociología, la filosofía y el derecho para ofrecernos uno de los análisis más precisos y perspicaces del capitalismo jamás escritos. La erudición, la neutralidad valorativa y la fina ironía permiten a Schumpeter trazar un cuadro en el que los ciclos económicos son la esencia del capitalismo, el fruto de la innovación y la destrucción creativa que reemplaza lo viejo y obsoleto por lo nuevo y eficiente, un proceso en el que juega un papel destacado la figura del empresario y que a largo plazo beneficia al conjunto de la sociedad. Sin embargo, el autor se aleja de todo dogma y atisba la viabilidad del socialismo democrático. La obra, que algún crítico describió como una aguda sátira en la estela de Jonathan Swift, continúa desconcertando hoy por igual a progresistas y conservadores dogmáticos, y es esencial para comprender los cambios económicos y políticos de las últimas décadas.

Il volume raccoglie due capitoli tratti dalla prima edizione della "Teoria dello sviluppo economico": la principale tra le opere di Schumpeter, nonché una delle più rilevanti del pensiero economico del Novecento. Pubblicata nel 1911, l'opera conobbe una seconda edizione, profondamente modificata, nel 1926. In essa, fu eliminato il settimo capitolo, mentre il secondo fu interamente riscritto. Sebbene dal punto di vista della "arida dottrina economica" poco mutasse, le differenze si rivelarono considerevoli quanto ai contenuti più propriamente sociologici. Il radicalismo elitistico fu alquanto attenuato, il profilo del soggetto imprenditore assunse tratti molto meno netti, decisamente meno ambizioso si rivelò essere il quadro generale e la "visione" sociologico-culturale d'insieme. Quali che fossero le ragioni che condussero a questi mutamenti, è indubbio che l'autore li considerasse almeno in parte imposti dalle circostanze e da vere e proprie interpretazioni infondate. La lettura dei due testi qui tradotti contribuisce perciò a una più completa comprensione dell'opera schumpeteriana. Non solo. Il loro esplicito legame permette di apprezzarne, ancor prima, la notevole originalità entro un contesto teorico quello della grande Vienna.

Together with John Maynard Keynes and Milton Friedman, Joseph Schumpeter is regarded as one of the three greatest economists of the 20th century. And yet, his actual economic writing has remained something of an enigma. Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy, his best-known work, was also an unscientific throw-off in his view. His major economic works - The Theory of Economic Development and Business Cycles - have been misunderstood and underappreciated. What has not been realized is that key elements of the Schumpeterian system have hitherto gone missing. Clues to that system were contained in his magisterial History of Economic Analysis, but the full-orbed outworking was contained in his unpublished German manuscript on money and banking. Now published in English translation, the Treatise on Money provides the key to understanding Schumpeter's system. It shows that Schumpeter's famous emphasis on 'creative destruction' is a more complex phenomenon than is popularly understood. In particular, it provides an understanding of the workings of money, banking, and the money and capital markets, that are supremely relevant in the light of current monetary and fiscal policy crises. This present volume is therefore an indispensable contribution to revealing the true Schumpeter to the English-speaking world.
