Werner Sombart is the undisputed pioneer of the modern subdiscipline of comparative economic systems. His Modern Capitalism sets out the preconditions for a modern workable capitalist system. Sombart was interested in the transition from pre-capitalism to high capitalism and late (i.e. regulated) capitalism. He could not have foreseen that his work would also hold the key to understanding the transition from planned to market economies.
