Democracy After The War
About this book
John Atkinson Hobson's 'The Fight for Democracy' looks at the state of British democracy after the First World War, outlining the various forces of capitalism, conservatism, militarism, imperialism, protectionist, and bureaucracy that stood in its way and had been strengthened by the conflict. Contents include: 'How to Break the Vicious Circle', 'The new Economic Situation', 'Two Problems for Labour', 'The Conquest of the State', and 'The Close State v. Internationalism'. John Atkinson Hobson (1858 - 1940) was an English social scientist and economist most famous for his work on imperialism—which notably had an influence on Vladimir Lenin-as well as his theory of underconsumption. His early work also questioned the classical theory of rent and predicted the Neoclassical 'marginal productivity' theory of distribution.
