metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: This article presents the philosophical reconstruction of the concept of “capitalism”. The key
  thesis is that K. Marx was not the creator of the concept “capitalism”, he used the term “capitalist
  mode of production”. This text introduces the consistent philosophical reflection on the
  emergence and formation of the concept of “capitalism” from the very beginning of its first
  references in the political literature in Germany and France until the introduction of the concept
  into the academic discourse as a stable term. In contrast to an established perception that
  Sombart was the first popularizer of the concept and introduced it into the academic use, the
  article shows the significance of Shaeffle’s work as earlier and important contribution to the
  development of the concept “capitalism”. It was in Shaeffle’s works that the term “capitalism”
  received a neutral meaning through its convergences with the concept of “liberalism”, and lost
  its negative political connotations, which laid the foundation for its academic history. In this
  text, Sombart and Weber are represented not only as pioneers of the concept of “capitalism” in
  academic discourse, but also as scholars who, by connecting “capitalism” with the concept of
  “spirit”, made it possible for the former to be developed as ideology as a specific type of capitalist
  rationality. On the basis of the detailed philosophical reconstruction of the formation of the
  concept of “capitalism”, it has been shown how the dynamic, developing, unstable concept of
  “capitalism” transformed into the ideological term and then became the foundation for shaping
  rational/calculative New Time subject.
