Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Focusing on the evolution of American retail capitalism, this book examines how major retailers like Walmart and Amazon flourished in a regulatory environment that favored their growth. It contrasts the U.S. experience with that of retailers in other countries, which faced stricter regulations. The author, Kathleen Thelen, illustrates how these companies formed powerful political coalitions to resist regulation, often at the expense of suppliers and workers. By situating the rise of the Amazon economy within a broader historical context, it highlights the implications of this unchecked expansion.
