'Capitalism and Imperialism in South Africa' is a 1900 essay by English social scientist and economist John Atkinson Hobson. Within it, Hobson traces the history of British imperialism in South Africa and looks at the effects this had upon the economy of the region. 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 essay 'Problems of Poverty'.
