The Political Economy Reader advocates a particular approach to the
study of political economy - the "market-institutional" perspective
- which emphasizes the ways in which markets are embedded in
political and social institutions. This perspective offers a
compelling alternative to the market-liberal view, which advocates
freer markets and less government intervention in the economy, as
if states and markets were naturally at odds with each other. The
reader embraces a truly interdisciplinary approach to the study of
political economy, with extensive coverage from sociology,
economics, history and political science. It includes some of the
most important classical and contemporary theoretical perspectives
on political economy. And it engages some of the most topical
debates in political economy today, such as climate change, the
global financial crisis, inequality, the digital platform economy,
and the COVID-19 pandemic. For political economy courses at a
variety of levels and from a range of disciplines, the reader is
also of interest to scholars and citizens wanting perspective on
the intersection of economics, politics, and society. New to the
Second Edition * More than 20 new readings included by such
notables as Elinor Ostrom, E. J. Hobsbawm, Dani Rodrik, Amartya
Sen, Thomas Piketty, and Mariana Mazzucato among many others. *
Fully updated introductions to the book and each thematic chapter
of readings. * Coverage of key emerging debates including climate
change, the financial crisis, inequality, the digital platform
economy, and COVID-19
