Mandel, E: Late Capitalism

""Late Capitalism" is the answer to how Marx might view the complex economic phenomena of the 1970s. It is sophisticated, well written, impressively documented. This volume is, indeed, one of the major contributions of the last decade to Marxist economics."--"Choice" "I recommend this book for the grandeur of its vision, and for its innumerable, suggestive hypotheses which might lead future investigators towards fruitful research in many areas."--"Contemporary Sociology" "Mandel's book is a serious and scholarly effort."--"Journal of Modern History" ""Late Capitalism" represents a significant advance for Mandel. A notable feature of his book is an attempt to revive and critically reassess the theory of 'long waves' normally associated with such writers as Kondratieff."--"The Economic Journal"
