Description

This critical reconstruction examines Karl Polanyi's double movement thesis from The Great Transformation, exploring how free market economies emerge and societies subsequently respond to mitigate market destruction. Polanyi's influential framework identifies the double movement as the hidden mechanism driving social and historical change within capitalism. The book provides a forensic analysis and detailed critique of Polanyi's foundational argument, developing an interpretive framework that unpacks the paradoxes and tensions within this seminal theory. Ideal for students and scholars of economic history, social theory, and political economy seeking to understand how societies navigate the tension between market liberalisation and social protection.

Key Features

Offers critical reconstruction of Polanyi's double movement thesis, the central concept from The Great Transformation.

Examines how free market establishment triggers societal efforts to counteract destructive market effects and social disruption.

Forensic analysis of Polanyi's argument develops an interpretive framework for understanding capitalism's hidden dynamics.

Part of Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought series, suitable for advanced academic study.

Explores the paradoxes within Polanyi's theory of social change and historical transformation under capitalism.
