Summary |
"In Karl Polanyi in Dialogue, Nancy Fraser meets Karl Polanyi and the New Left meets the Old Left. An important German researcher specialising in Polanyi (author of the classic The Great Transformation), editor Michael Brie grapples with a time when the Left worldwide is on the retreat: while the Old Left lies in ruin, the New Left faces a determined neoliberal attack on the social state and social rights. Meanwhile, an aggressive New Right is taking the streets, the parliaments and even governmental power. Amidst the vertiginous tension of such a crisis, this book urgently argues for an alliance of socialist liberals and libertarian communists to reunite contemporary campaigns for recognition, difference and human dignity with more traditional struggles for social welfare and economic democracy. The book powerfully reinterprets Polanyi's thought for present times and includes two articles by the classic thinker which have been translated into English for the first time."-- Provided by publisher. |
