Adolph Lowe, one of the most eminent scholars of political economics now living, has written a broad and philosophical work examining freedom's costs, and the conditions--economic and political--under which it can be established. The culmination of a lifetime of teaching and thought, this book asserts that Western society is in the midst of a revolutionary transformation. Unless a new framework is built to replace traditional constraints, now rejected, this cultural upheaval will result in the breakdown of the order, stability, and freedom that have been the foundation of modern Western society.
ADOLPH LOWE studied law, economics, and philosophy at the Universities of Munich, Berlin, and Tubingen. Prior to World War II, he was Professor of Economics at the University of Frankfurt and Director of the Institute of World Economics at Kiel.
