Michael Kidron argues that the postwar boom was no accident, chronicling the structural shifts — from massive arms spending to state intervention — that underpinned an unprecedented period of economic growth across the Western world. Written with sharp analytical clarity, the work illustrates how militarism and capital expenditure became deeply intertwined with economic stability, challenging orthodox Marxist and mainstream economic assumptions alike. Kidron details the contradictions built into this system, warning that the foundations of postwar prosperity were inherently unstable and destined to unravel. An essential read for anyone seeking to understand the political and economic forces that shaped the modern capitalist order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956119482587,"sku":"2026200010918-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9208f764-d189-43ee-a57d-37c557269505.png?v=1783497965","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200010918-secondhand-western-capitalism-since-the-war","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
