Rezensionen

'I have strongly appreciated this book, as it consitutes a fruitful merging of Marxian theory with recent advances in institutional and evolutionary economics. The book is well researched and, among other things, provides useful summaries and original combinations of several strands of literature, mainly but not exclusively radical and institutional...it is very rewarding reading for everybody wanting to understand what capitalism really is.' - Angelo Reati, il cannocchiale
