The Capitalist Era: The Making-and Unmaking-of the Global Mind by Jeremy Adelman is a work of global history centered on capitalism as both an economic system and a way of imagining the world. Rather than treating capitalism only as markets, factories, finance, or trade, the book is best understood as an inquiry into how capitalist expansion encouraged people to think globally: to connect distant regions, compare societies, pursue growth, and organize knowledge around worldwide interdependence. Adelman, a historian associated with global and Latin American history, approaches the subject with attention to empire, political economy, inequality, and the changing frameworks through which people understood connection and crisis. The title also signals a reversal. The same forces that helped create a global outlook have generated fragmentation, distrust, nationalism, and ecological anxiety. The book therefore belongs to the history of capitalism, global intellectual history, and modern world history, with a focus on how economic structures shape imagination and public life.
