Socialism or free-market capitalism: Which is better for achieving human prosperity? The debate is long-standing—but some of the results are in. Historians, economists, political scientists, and other leading scholars review the evidence from multiple perspectives, examining what it takes for a society to flourish and how well each economic and political system supports its promises.
Foreword by Condoleezza Rice
Preface by Scott W. Atlas
