Description
This 2014 edition of Las pasiones y los intereses by Albert O. Hirschman explores the complex transformation of ideas that led to the emergence of capitalism.
The author examines how the pursuit of material interests was seen as a way to contain the destructive passions of humanity, and how this idea has been interpreted over time.
Through an analysis of the writings of influential thinkers such as Montesquieu, Sir James Steuart, and Adam Smith, Hirschman sheds new light on the evolution of capitalist thought and its relationship to traditional ideas.
