Synopsis
Democracy meets the marketplace in a bold plan for reforming business.
This 1917 work argues that democracy must extend into business, shaping how privilege, monopoly, and profit affect the common good. It weaves history and law to show how economic power can distort society, and it outlines a practical, reform-minded approach called civilized commercialism. The book uses historical examples and legal ideas to explore how markets could work for everyone, not just the powerful.
The author traces how monopolies have risen, what they do to opportunity, and why a strong middle class matters to a free, thriving nation. It blends economic insight with legal reasoning to ask hard questions about restraint of trade and the role of public interest in private enterprise.
- See how monopoly and special interests have shaped past and present economies.
- Understand the idea that private property used for the public good can be regulated.
- Learn how legal cases framed the balance between business efficiency and fair competition.
- Explore a historical vision for aligning business with democratic principles.
Ideal for readers of history, political economy, and law who want a clear argument for a more equitable business system.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a solution to the increasingly dangerous tendencies of monopolies in present-day society. The author uses the examples of ancient civilizations, like Greece and Rome, to demonstrate how the monopolization of resources and production, paired with race suicide, led to societal collapse. The author notes that these civilizations' problems arose due to a lack of understanding of the concept of monopoly and how to avoid its pitfalls. This book serves as an application of democracy to business, urging principles that will drive privilege out of business systems to prevent the failures of the past repeating in the present day.
