The Profit-seekers

Guy Routh

Chapter 6 in Economics, 1984, pp 62-114 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract One of the distinguishing features of capitalism, as we have just noted: is its instability. Another is the paradox of deprived people co-existing with unsaleable goods. A third is its cumulative concentration of productive power in giant corporations. This is not a new phenomenon — the Anti-Trust Act was passed in the United States in 1890, promoted by John Sherman, a Republican senator.
