The Theory of Business Enterprise is a seminal work by Thorstein Veblen, an American economist and sociologist. Published in 1904, this book explores the nature of modern business enterprises and their impact on society. Veblen argues that the modern business enterprise is fundamentally different from traditional forms of economic organization, such as the family farm or artisan workshop. He contends that the business enterprise is driven not by the desire to produce goods and services for the benefit of society, but rather by the pursuit of profit and the accumulation of wealth. Veblen's analysis of business enterprise is grounded in his broader critique of capitalist society. He argues that capitalism is a system in which the pursuit of profit takes precedence over all other values, including social welfare and environmental sustainability. He also critiques the role of the business enterprise in perpetuating social inequality and class conflict. Despite its age, The Theory of Business Enterprise remains a significant work in the field of economics and sociology. It has been influential in shaping debates about the role of corporations in society, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars today.This is a new release of the original 1932 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
