Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth exploration of the widespread usury that plagued rural Bukovina, a historically poor region of Eastern Europe, during the final decades of the 19th century. The author, an academic with deep knowledge of the region, examines the economic, social, and cultural factors that enabled the exploitative lending practices to flourish unchecked. Through meticulous research and analysis of court records, the author reveals the strategies employed by moneylenders to systematically impoverish the rural population, including high and hidden interest rates, deliberately confusing loan terms, and unethical debt collection practices. The author also explores the social and psychological dynamics that made the region's farmers particularly vulnerable to these predatory practices, including widespread illiteracy, lack of access to alternative forms of credit, and a culture that placed a high value on lavish spending at social events. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of credit and lending practices, the social and economic conditions of Eastern Europe, and the ongoing struggle against poverty and exploitation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that many modern societies seem to exhibit an undesirable dynamic: the wealth gap is growing wider as the middle class dwindles, while an increasingly smaller upper class accumulates more and more of the collective wealth. This seems to contradict the idea of progress since many believed that capitalism and the Industrial Revolution would lead to a more equitable distribution of wealth and more social mobility. However, this book posits that without significant reform, the progress of the past several hundred years may be reversed, leading to a society in which only the ultra-wealthy enjoy a high quality of life while most of society lives in poverty. This book presents a detailed analysis of this subject, offering essential insights for anyone seeking to understand the forces at play in modern economics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
