Abstract

In Veblen?s historical treatment of the rise of capitalism and wealth represent not only reward for labor and savings but exploitation of labor and land alike. Veblen?s critical discourse on predacious business opportunists can be extended to the proclivity of the North?s ?leisure? and middle classes to engage in extravagant consumerism causing resource inefficiency and environmental degradation.
