It places these ideas within broader debates within the history of economic thought to highlight how the nature of economic activity is a collective and coordinated process. Through examining how the welfare state reversed traditional accumulation by relying on human capital growth, the importance of the state within the development process is emphasised, alongside the multifaceted nature of competition. Different forms of public expenditure are then evaluated to identify the most productive forms of public spending and the drivers of long term economic development.This book questions the relationship between profits and rent and proposes a new kind of economic development based around human capital. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought, the political economy, and labour economics.\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eCosimo Perrotta\u003c\/b\u003e is former Professor of the History of Economic Thought at the University of Salento\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSalvatore Rizzello\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Economics at the University of Salento.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClaudia Sunna \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of the History of Economic Thought at the University of Salento.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45091432235159,"sku":"9783031344930","price":3326.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783031344930.webp?v=1769204421","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/human-capital-the-driving-force-for-economic-development-9783031344930","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
