Description:
An incisive history of the changing relationship between democracy and capitalism
The twentieth century witnessed the triumph of democratic capitalism in the industrialised West, with widespread popular support for both free markets and representative elections. Today, that political consensus appears to be breaking down, disrupted by polarization and income inequality, widespread dissatisfaction with democratic institutions, and insurgent populism. Tracing the history of democratic capitalism over the past two centuries, Carles Boix explains how we got here — and where we could be headed.
Boix looks at three defining stages of capitalism, each originating in a distinct time and place with its unique political challenges, structure of production and employment, and relationship with democracy. He begins in nineteenth-century Manchester, where factory owners employed unskilled labourers at low wages, generating rampant inequality and a restrictive electoral franchise. He then moves to Detroit in the early 1900s, where the invention of the modern assembly line shifted labor demand to skilled blue-collar workers. Boix shows how growing wages, declining inequality, and an expanding middle class enabled democratic capitalism to flourish. Today, however, the information revolution that began in Silicon Valley in the 1970s is benefitting the highly educated at the expense of the traditional working class, jobs are going offshore, and inequality has risen sharply, making many wonder whether democracy and capitalism are still compatible.

Good enough
Color: Black
Comfortable chair. Easy to put together. Allen nuts aren't cut perfectly so sometimes hard to get the wrench in there. My biggest complaint, and I didn't even realize this until I sat down in it, the arm rests are not adjustable and they are a little short for my liking.

I love it!
Color: Black
This chair is so comfy! I also love that it goes up super high (as a tall man it's nice to have the kicking my feet sensation... Lol). It's wider than I imagined and it the first chair with arms that I can fit in as an almost 500 pound dude. The lumbar support is nice and also adjustable, too. The wheels are high quality and move you fast. It was pretty easy to put together, but deff get help from someone to hold pieces in place

Very sturdy and well worth the price!
Color: Black
First, my chair arrived faster than I expected! It was delivered in a well packed box and everything was plainly marked! It assembled very easily as per the instructions. The only thing I would recommend is to have another person available to assist with the installation of the back rest onto the chair. It gets kind of cumbersome for one person, although I did it myself… another tip start all screws before tightening, especially with the arms and the back rest cushion!
It only took me about 25–30 minutes to do the whole thing by myself..
The materials are of good quality, very sturdy and I really like the dual casters as they glide on the floor really nice!
Well, worth the price!!!

My best office chair!
Color: Black
I haven't really given a lot of reviews before. But that said I weighed 260 at 6 ft 3 in. I have to admit this is a pretty comfortable chair! It was easy to put together, and my legs don't go to sleep anymore sitting in an office chair The lumbar support is really good. I'm just glad I was able to find this chair, and about my son another one and it'll be here Friday! You can't go wrong with this chair! I love it so far!
