'Problems of a New World' is a 1921 work by English social scientist John Atkinson Hobson that explores how the world changed after World War I and the various problems and issues that arose with this new world order. Contents include: 'Collapse of the Old Order', 'The Civilian Mind', 'The Tragi-comedy of War-idealism', 'The New Industrial Revolution', and 'A New World'. John Atkinson Hobson (1858 - 1940) was an English social scientist and economist most famous for his work on imperialism-which notably had an influence on Vladimir Lenin-as well as his theory of underconsumption. His early work also questioned the classical theory of rent and predicted the Neoclassical 'marginal productivity' theory of distribution. Other notable works by this author include: 'Evolution of Modern Capitalism' (1894), 'Problem of the Unemployed' (1896), and 'John Ruskin: Social Reformer' (1898). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an introductory chapter from Hobson’s 'Problems of Poverty'.
