In
The Political Economic Foundation of Democratic Capitalism, Dr. Alan Ertl traces the development of the
modern notions of Democracy and Capitalism, specifically the unique and seemingly at-odds combination of the two ideas that has grown to
form the political-economic system of democratic-capitalism. An understanding of this system is essential to political and economic
studies; the studies of those nations currently striving to develop Capitalism as their economic base would benefit from the separate
analyses of Democracy and Capitalism, how the two concepts compare and contrast, and how the two ideas have combined to form a complex
system of government.
