Recenzje

“Karl Polanyi made seminal contributions to political economy, social theory, and anthropology, as well as providing a running commentary on the epochal changes that were unfolding in his time. This collection of essays explores his ideas on a multitude of topics—fascism, science and technology, institutionalism, and all points in between. Comprehensive in coverage and expertly curated, this is a welcome addition to the burgeoning literature on Polanyi’s life and work.”

Gareth Dale, Reader in Political Economy at Brunel University, London

“This collection of articles by leading Polanyi scholars transcends disciplinary boundaries. By addressing the wide range of issues that preoccupied Polanyi over a lifetime, readers will also discover their remarkable coherence. Throughout his writings, Polanyi insisted upon the societal consequences of disembedding the economy from society. Today, the urgent need to rethink the relationship between the economy, society and nature, draws upon the work of Karl Polanyi. This handbook is not only a major contribution to Polanyi scholarship; it is major contribution to an intellectual counter-movement to the dominant paradigm.

Marguerite Mendell, Director of the Karl Polanyi Institute of Political Economy, Concordia University, Montreal

“This handbook is a timely contribution to ongoing debates of putting the economy in its place. It compiles contributions by renown scholars debating key Polanyian concepts as well as exploring Polanyian insights for better understanding contemporary political economy. A must-read for scholars researching ongoing multiple crises and societal transformations.”

Andreas Novy, President of the International Karl Polanyi Society, WU Vienna University of Economics
