Overview
"Anchored in contemporary debates on capitalism and political economy, this study reconsiders the major trends which are currently shaping a new stage of capitalism. With chapters examining globalization, the role of technology, environmental degradation, George Liodakis constructs a politico-economic approach on contemporary capitalism from within a classical Marxist framework of political economy." A fitting balance between theory and empirical evidence, Totalitarian Capitalism and Beyond significantly enriches the existing scholarship on contemporary capitalism and the potential for social change. An important contribution to those interested in International Political Economy, in particular with developing a new political strategy for going beyond capitalism; a 'reinvention' of a communist perspective.
