We also give basic information about globalization and consider capitalism in the era of globalization.In the third part of our work, we consider all the exciting topic of the crisis and look at capitalism in the era of the global financial crisis.And in the end we will make some conclusions on the above information.In our opinion, our topic “Varieties of capitalism in the globalizing world” is quite interesting and relevant, global financial crisis, according to many sources, has not yet ended, and capitalism has not changed to any other system.CapitalismBelow is an attempt to give a working definition of the term 'capitalism', to trace the emergence of capitalism in a historical context.The Oxford English Dictionary notes that the word "capitalism" first used in 1854 by the novelist William Makepeace Thackeray to denote the set of conditions of ownership of capital. In 1867, in his book Das Kapital Karl Marx used the term "capitalism" to refer to the capitalist mode of production, as well as "capitalist" - the owner of capital. To indicate the economic system for the first time the term was used in 1884 in the book Douai "Best of Times."Many economists give approximately the following definition of capitalism: a system of property rights, coexisting with the markets of production and consumption of goods and services, which the famous words of Adam Smith, manages the "invisible hand" that sets the price depending on supply and demand.Despite the fact that democracy at the level of city-states emerged, apparently in ancient Greece and Rome, explicit examples of democracies in history have been observed to de Tocqueville observations with his American: he described the American example enables some researchers to argue that since about from 1630, simultaneously developed two systems - democratic rule and capitalism.Historian Fernand Braudel, who attributed the rise of capitalism to the period of 1400-1800 years, admitted that he failed to define this phenomenon, but it is aware of the most important characteristic of capitalism as a system of economic relationships that are incompatible with feudalism, which is a different system of economic relationships. Trade in goods and services exist in many of the feudal system, such as the Aztecs, the Incas, in Japan of the Shoguns, in imperial China, India and the Ottoman Empire.Capitalism has the following distinctive features:1. The economy is producing goods and services, as well as commerce and other types of legitimate economic activity.2. The means of production are privately owned.3. The source of subsistence for the majority of society is the work not under duress, as is the case in other economic systems, and on the free recruitment, sale of labor in the form of wages.Types of CapitalismThere are two types of capitalism in a modern world:1st type: capitalism in imperialistic and other developed capitalistic countries: USA, Western Europe, Japan, Canada;2nd type: neo-colonial capitalism, that is works as a basis for the functioning of the 1st type capitalism (incl. Russia).Models of capitalism according the theory of Benjamin D. SuarezThere are a lot of classifications of capitalistic models in the today’s world, made by different scientists. For our work we have chosen the classification of capitalistic models according the theory of Benjamin D.Suarez.There are many forms of capitalism and they all very much differ from each other, but all of them come to several models of capitalism.Imperialistic modelsJapanese modelIt is a national state monopolistic capitalism based on market and government regu...
