Abstract:
We know that the clash pure capitalism vrs red socialism was won by pure capitalism as red socialism collapsed under extreme capitalism deficits. In other words, the world of Adam Smith prevailed and the world of Karl Marx collapsed. Now imaging for a moment that Adam Smith would have proposed a model based on sustainability markets instead of traditional markets, who would have won the paradigm clash then? Would the world of Karl Marx have existed then? Among the goals of this paper are to provide answers to these two questions using qualitative comparative tools.
