"Investigating the causes of our current global crisis by drawing on the work of Karl Polanyi, Peadar Kirby explores Polanyi's theory that social disruptions are caused by the attempt to run society according to the rules of the market. Kirby uses these ideas to tackle weaknesses in Marxism and demonstrate how we can build a strong alternative theory.
