With the end of the Cold War and the emergence of a new world order, this provocative manifesto is more relevant than ever.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Since its original publication in 1976, The Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism has been hailed as an intellectual tour de force that redefines how we think about the relationship among econmomics, culture, and social change. Daniel Bell, the author of such other modern classics as The End of Ideology and The Coming of Post-Industrial Society, argues that the unbounded drive of modern capitalism undermines the moral foundations of the original Protestant ethic that ushered in capitalism itself. In a major new afterword, Bell offers a bracing perspective on contemporary Western society, from the end of the Cold War to the rise and fall of postmodernism, revealing the crucial cultural fault lines we face as the twenty-first century approaches.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Daniel Bell</b> is the Henry Ford II Professor of Social Sciences Emeritus at Harvard University and Scholar-in-Residence at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is the author of editor of 17 books, two of which, <i>The End of Ideology </i>and <i>The Cultural Contradictions of Capitalism, </i> were listed among the 100 Most Influential Books since the Second World War (TLS, October 1995).
