Description

"These essays help us locate ourselves in history. As readers of *The Worldly Philosophers* or *The Future as History* or *The Limits of American Capitalism* know, Robert L. Heilbroner is an economist who uses his craft to elucidate the problems of large-scale historical transformation that affect our times. In these essays that on-going examination is pursued further as Heilbroner explores these forces that impinge on our present position "between capitalism and socialism".--Back cover.

First Sentence

Anyone who examines the political economies of the Western world during the past century and a half is bound to be struck by a broad pattern of change, almost a Toyn-bean advance-and-retreat, observable in all of them.
