Audio and Course Series
History of Capitalism and History of E-commerce
No story is as essential to get right as the history of capitalism. This series examines how the United States became the world's leading economic power and what that history implies for present-day inequality, growth, and democratic accountability.
Originally developed as a MOOC, the course now lives as a set of videos and podcasts, with companion reading in American Capitalism: A Reader.
A second project, The History of E-commerce, traces the development of digital commerce through interviews with technologists, entrepreneurs, and policymakers.
