About This Book

Shaw presents a lucid, conversational exposition of economic and political systems aimed at informed women readers, surveying the principles, history, and effects of capitalism and socialism. He analyzes class relations, income inequality, property and enterprise organization, and the social consequences of laissez-faire policies; evaluates reforms such as public ownership, cooperative enterprise, progressive taxation, and welfare measures; and discusses political strategy, education, and women's roles in social change. The argument combines economic explanation with moral and practical considerations, weighing advantages and limitations of various proposals for achieving a more equitable and stable society.
