In this short, but rich piece of work, Erzsebet Szalai offers a
neo-socialist alternative to socialism (i.e. communist ruled
state-socialism) and neo-capitalism. Drawing upon the fertile
tradition of left-wing Hungarian Social Sciences, she offers her
own theory of transitional society, suggesting that socialism was
not an independent formation, but instead a society in transition.
She relocates soviet-type societies on the semi-periphery of the
capitalist world system. In addition she offers a critique of
capitalism that pivots on the two connected issues of over
production and ecological crisis. She makes the distinction between
an anti-globalism critique and a globalization critique, locating
herself in the latter. This work offers readers the opportunity to
engage in a critique of capitalism that is organized along a new
understanding of socialism itself.
