CAP-COM, The Economics Of Balance - Capitalism & Communalism In The Enfranchised Society y

---

Kent Welton has quite obviously devoted extraordinary efforts in composing the provocative economic and cultural theories in this work. I am always open to a new perspective and fresh material that could shed light on the unfathomably complex economic environments of both the past and the present. Although this is certainly not an exhaustive list, I particularly appreciated the extensive historical research and reference that was put into this book. I can only speculate at the number of years it must have taken to compile this much information and assemble it into a logical progression of economic thought, cultural study, and governmental policy in the course of known history and beyond.

This work delves delves far deeper than basic economics to explore the most fundamental ideals and principles of human cultures that resulted in the governmental and economic stances that modern economics strives to explain. I think that Mr. Welton, for the sake of keeping this material in the form of a manageable read, has drawn many conclusions - some a bit controversial - but hasn't provided enough evidence or persuasion to convince me of their likelihood.

Using myth and mythology to define the fundamentals of prehistoric societies preceding those that history vaguely remembers is risky at best to establish the foundation for the explanations outlined here. Most specifically, the idea that a female dominated society would be far more nurturing and peaceful than the war-mongering male-dominated societies we have known may be somewhat naive, if not contradicted by those violent cultures in history's pages that actually were led by women.

That being said, his basis for these conclusions - namely, the fact that no known cultures in history were entirely female dominated - are certainly reasonable, leaving the matter open to such speculation. This book is certainly worth the read, and its theories are more than worth consideration, most especially in the quest for finding peaceful balance between the greatest extremes in world economics and power distribution among classes.

I am rating this book at 4 stars because of the factors outlined above, and while I understand that too much foundation building can lead to a nightmarish and barely digestible tome, I still thought it needed at least more psychological research behind the conclusions that history neither allows to prove or disprove. With that enhancement, this would rate at least a 4. Speaking of barely digestible tomes, this review may have gone a bit long sorry! Not sure why another reviewer was so upset by this book. I enjoyed reading this book very much.

It makes for a good history lesson in economics. The section on the enclosure movements and its effects on the definition of free markets was particularly interesting.

This is a challenging read with in-depth chapters on free trade, Adam Smith vs Karl Marx, labor and wages, growth-ism, money and banking, population and environment, and limits to wealth, etc. The Author must find it satisfying that a few individuals will acctually take the time to read this! Worse still, some of them may acctually believe that what the Author has to say here makes sense.

It's the same group of people who elected our President and cheered at every word which fell from his lips, simply because "He sounded so intelligent, only to find out that he could care less what the "will" of the American people wanted, as long as he got elected, so he could pursue his own agenda, which has little or nothing to do with the America I grew up in! This Author may actually believe in what he has to say, but that does not make him any more or less sane! See all 3 reviews.

Nielsen Book Data Whereas previous studies of the end of British rule in India have concentrated on the negotiations of the transfer of power at the all-India level or have considered the emergence of separatist politics amongst India's Muslim minorities, this study provides a re-evaluation of the history of Bengal focusing on the political and social processes that led to the demand for partition in Bengal and tracing the rise of Hindu communalism.

In its most startling revelation, the author shows how the demand for a separate homeland for the Hindus, which was fuelled by a large and powerful section of Hindu society within Bengal, was seen as the only way to regain influence and to wrest power from the Muslim majority. The picture which emerges is one of a stratified and fragmented society moving away from the mainstream of Indian nationalism, and increasingly preoccupied with narrower, more parochial concerns.
