'Capitalism in Transformation is an outstanding work of collective scholarship and unreservedly recommended for both college and university library Contemporary Economics collections and supplemental curriculum reading lists.' -- Midwest Book Review 'The book provides new historical and theoretical reflections on the work of Karl Polanyi and its relevance to today's movements and countermovements, including new fictitious commodities, such as knowledge and care, the rise of the populist right throughout the world and the transformation of labour markets.' -- Marguerite Mendell, Director, Karl Polanyi Institute of Political Economy, Concordia University, Canada 'What connects climate ecocide, soy expansion in Latin America, digital Taylorism, the commodification of care, and the rise of "voelkisch populism"? They're among the morbid symptoms of contemporary capitalism that are diagnosed in this important book.' -- Gareth Dale, author of Karl Polanyi, A Life on the Left and Reconstructing Karl Polanyi: Excavation and Critique 'Capitalism in Transformation is a work of cutting edge political economy that addresses, through the lens of Karl Polanyi, the fundamental issues of our times - the financial crises, austerity, climate catastrophe, social and gender inequality, and the pressing crisis of democracy. In a single provocative and essential volume, this collection reveals the analytic exhaustion of mainstream economics, and demonstrates why Karl Polanyi has become the indispensable theorist of our times.' -- Margaret R.
