Capitalism Unbound: The Incontestable Moral Case for Individual Rights is a concise explanation of capitalism’s moral and economic superiority to all forms of socialism, including America’s current mixed-economy welfare state. Bernstein shows that the current crisis is essentially similar to the Great Depression in its causation and in the steps necessary to resolve it. The book’s concluding section applies moral and economic principles to the current economic crisis, showing that government intervention is its cause and a policy of laissez-faire its necessary solution. Furthermore, socialist/statist policies are universally the cause of social calamities and that the answer lies in individual rights and laissez-faire capitalism. The principles that this book clearly articulates are timeless; in diverse forms, the conflicts these principles explain will recur repeatedly throughout history. As a result, this book is relevant not merely today, but will be forever.
Bernstein accomplishes all of this in a concise, lively, impassioned volume that is fully accessible to potentially countless readers.
REVIEWS
Capitalism Unbound is a triumph. Passionately written and painstakingly researched, Bernstein’s primer on capitalism is actually an urgent call-to-arms for individual rights. This is a must-read book for those who love liberty and are concerned about the country’s present course. (Jonathan Hoenig )In Capitalism Unbound,Andrew Bernstein has presented the too-often neglected but essential moral case for capitalism alongside the historical and economic one. The great virtue of this work is the taut and well-written prose that makes it both easily digestible and full of important ideas. In these times when capitalism is unfairly blamed for every social ill, Bernstein’s work should be read by everyone as the antidote. His rousing call to unleash the human mind and celebrate productivity is both rare and to be cherished. (Dr. Eric Daniels )
