This comprehensive book delves into the intricate dynamics of capital accumulation and the institutions that shape it. It explores three primary sources of accumulation: the extraction of profit through labor and the commodification of nature, financial speculation, and the processes that transform profit into wealth. By offering a fresh perspective on the economic and political logics of capital accumulation within capitalism in the 21st century, it sheds light on the reconfiguration of profit sources, from traditional mechanisms of labor exploitation to contemporary logics of speculation and dispossession.
Accumulating Capital Today brings together the insights of scholars from various disciplines, transcending disciplinary boundaries to provide a holistic understanding of how capital is accumulating in a world grappling with the imminent threat of social and environmental collapse. This groundbreaking work heralds the emergence of accumulation studies and holds immense interest for researchers in sociology, anthropology, politics, political economy, geography, and economics.
Through its detailed analysis and insightful perspectives, this book offers valuable insights into the complex mechanisms that drive capital accumulation, the social and environmental consequences of these processes, and the potential pathways for transformative change. It serves as a crucial resource for scholars, policymakers, and activists seeking to understand the dynamics of wealth creation and inequality in our contemporary world.
