Short description:
This book develops a new conception of political economy at the interface of economic theory and political thought.
MoreLong description:
The two dominant conceptions of political economy are based on either reducing political decisions to rational-choice reasoning or, conversely, reducing economic structures and phenomena to the realm of politics. In this book, Adrian Pabst and Roberto Scazzieri contend that neither conception is convincing and argue for a fundamental rethinking of political economy. Developing a new approach at the interface of economic theory and political thought, the book shows that political economy covers a plurality of dimensions, which reflect internal hierarchies and multiple relationships within the economic and political sphere. The Constitution of Political Economy presents a new, richer conception of political economy that draws on a range of thinkers from the history of political economy, recognising the complex embedding of the economy and the polity in society. Effective policy-making has to reflect this embedding and rests on the interdependence between local, national, and international actors to address multiple systemic crises.
'Adrian Pabst and Roberto Scazzieri's sophisticated analysis combines deep knowledge of intellectual history with critical assessment of the methods of political science and economics. They offer a better way of understanding the complex interdependencies between politics and the economy. Both disciplines - as well as historians - will benefit from their call for a new approach to political economy that understands economics and politics as mutually embedded.' Martin Daunton, Emeritus Professor of Economic History, University of Cambridge
