See ‘Capitalism and Its Critics’ Review: Enemies of the Market Mindset by Andrew Stuttaford of the National Review. He reviewed the book Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI by John Cassidy. Excerpts:
"Utopian followers of Karl Marx prophesied the collapse of market economies, but capitalism has proved resilient."
"The fate of the Russian economist Nikolai Kondratiev (1892-1938), however, neatly symbolizes the arrival of an iron age. A supporter of the successful policy under which the struggling young Soviet state allowed a partial return to a market economy, he queried both the wisdom of collectivization and the inevitability of capitalism’s collapse (he was duly imprisoned and shot)."
