This is a collection of mathematically-based, economic research by scholars from a breadth of non-neoclassical research traditions. Drawing on classical, Marxist, post-Keynesian and Kaleckian, structuralist, evolutionary and institutionalist approaches, these essays address four key areas of economics: unemployment, finance and business cycles; accumulation, distribution and technical change; value and price; and contemporary debates in development economics.

The state-market debate is largely the intellectual legacy of neoclassical economics. This book attempts to go beyond the state-market dichotomy, arguing that development can be helped or hindered by both the state and markets. It further argues that co-operation between the two factors is best.
