I. Separation of state and economy -- II. Regulation and counterrevolution -- III. Return of the honorable company -- IV. The impact on the political frontier -- V. Salute to the great economy
Summary: "Here is a masterful analysis of the organization of the present-day economy, comparable to Thorstein Veblen's great commentaries of a few decades ago. Walton Hamilton, one of the country's outstanding lawyers and economists, takes an explosively radical approach in describing the actual modes of power and behavior in the modern industrial economy. Cutting through traditional arguments about private versus public enterprise, he examines the intermingling of government and private industry in four distinct areas: the administrative agency, patents and licenses, the international sphere, and corporate regulation." -- From the dust jacket
