The work of Karl Polanyi has gained in influence in recent years to
become a point of reference to a wide range of leading authors in
the fields of economics, politics, sociology and social policy.
Newly available in paperback, this volume is a combination of
reflections on, and assessment of, the nature of Polanyi's
contribution and new strands of work, both theoretical and
empirical, that has been inspired by Polanyi's insights. It gathers
together the key contributions to the first ever workshop on the
work of Karl Polanyi held in the United Kingdom. Several of the
contributions develop Polanyian ideas in relation to contemporary
capitalism. However, in a critical spirit, other contributions in
the volume substantially transform his concept 'instituted economic
process' in considering a broad range of contemporary
socio-economic change: markets for mobile telephony, call centre
operations and European labour markets. -- .
