At the Crossroads of Prosperity:: Wealth Extraction and the Future of the American Economy (Re-Thinking Business and Economics) - Softcover
Book 3 of 3: Re-Thinking Business and Economics
Synopsis
At the Crossroads of Prosperity explores a paradox at the heart of modern economies: extraordinary wealth creation alongside rising instability. Housing insecurity, widening inequality, and declining trust now coexist with unprecedented technological innovation. This book asks a fundamental question: What happens to wealth after it is created?
Tracing the evolution of economic systems from early human societies through agriculture, feudalism, industrial capitalism, and modern finance, the book introduces a clear distinction between surplus production and economic value extraction. Prosperity, it argues, depends not only on generating surplus, but on whether that surplus is reinvested in the capabilities and capacity of society—or diverted into mechanisms that concentrate wealth without strengthening the system itself.
By examining housing markets, financialization, and contrasting institutional paths in Europe and the United States, At the Crossroads of Prosperity reframes today’s challenges as structural signals rather than isolated failures. The book ultimately argues that the future of capitalism will be shaped not by technology alone, but by how deliberately societies choose to embed markets within institutions that sustain long‑term stability.
