Corporate capitalism was invented in nineteenth-century Britain; most of the market institutions that we take for granted today – limited companies, shares, stock markets, accountants, financial newspapers – were Victorian creations.
So were the moral codes, the behavioural assumptions, the rules of thumb and the unspoken agreements that made this market structure work. This innovative study provides the first integrated analysis of the origin of these formative capitalist institutions, and reveals why they were conceived and how they were constructed.
I bought Making the Market hardcover edition on Amazon - arrived today, 2026-04-07, so far Im completely satisfied with the book quality

Honestly other books by PAUL JOHNSON, Vice-Chancellor and President of La Trobe University, Melbourne were a bit more helpful for me. But anyway, Making the Market is another great piece of content

You can`t run busness without reading Making the Market by PAUL JOHNSON, Vice-Chancellor and President of La Trobe University, Melbourne. Nuff said.

Well, the "Making the Market"" PDF is not the easiest one to read, neither it`s a simplest one to understand. Although, it`s a MUST!
