Exploring the dynamics of state expansion, this 1919 work by Joseph Schumpeter presents a compelling theory on how states evolve into empires, drawing parallels with historical events, including a critique of contemporary U.S. foreign policy through the lens of Imperial Rome. The second essay delves into class mobility and the political landscape within capitalist societies. Schumpeter, a notable classical liberal, offers significant insights that contribute to the understanding of political economy, making this book a vital addition to the field.
