Commentary
A book that pays high returns for decades with endless insights is Joseph Schumpeter’s “Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy” (1943). It is not a systematic treatise. It’s more of a series of observations about huge problems that vexed those times and ours. Many are informed by economics. Some by history. Some by sociology and culture.
