Democracy and Exchange is about the twin pillars of the consultative order. The subject is perennially topical and interesting, both in rich countries and in less-developed countries that are developing their own institutional mix. It also provides an in-depth analysis and comparison of the political economy of five seminal theorists: Adam Smith, Richard Titmuss, T.H. Marshall, J.K. Galbraith and Joseph Schumpeter.
Industry Reviews
'This is a remarkable book. The chapters on Schumpeter and Marshall alone are worth the price and effort.' -- Journal of the History of Economic Thought
'This is a remarkable book. The chapters on Schumpeter and Marshall alone are worth the price and effort.' -- Charles R. McCann, Jr., Journal of the History of Economic Thought
'David Reisman has taken the impressive task to examine the relationship between democracy and exchange. He assesses the theories of the two pillars of political economy of five main figures in the history of economic thought (Schumpeter, Smith, Titmuss, T.H. Marshall and Galbraith). He does so in a very profound way providing a novel interpretation of the concepts of democracy and exchange.' -- European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy
'David Reisman has written over a dozen books on important figures in political economy and has brought his subjects and their ideas to life as have few other authors. Now Reisman the historian of economic thought has become Reisman the political economic theorist. He puts to good use the insights of the important figures and of their critics to produce nothing less than the identification of the elements, problems, explanatory chains of reasoning, solutions, and critiques of solutions that issue forth from the transcendent problem of modern political economy: the achievement of democracy, somehow defined, in a world of unequal achievement and power, governance as encompassing more than government, and the manufacture of belief and manipulation of sentiment, with perceptivity and subtlety. It is a book I wish I had written.' -- Warren J. Samuels, Michigan State University, US
