Description:

"Political economy" has been the term used for the past 300 years to express the interrelationship between the political and economic affairs of the state. In Theories of Political Economy, James A. Caporaso and David P. Levine explore some of the more important frameworks for understanding the relation between politics and economics, including the classical, Marxian, Keynesian, neoclassical, state-centered, power-centered, and justice-centered. The book emphasizes understanding both the differences among the overall frameworks of the theories and the issues common to them.

4Great Summary of Political EconomyMay 11, 1999
By Adam Glesser
This is a very good introduction into the theories of political economy. It covers classical and neo-classical theories, as well as Marxian and Keynesian critiques. Notably missing is Polanyi. Sometimes a bit difficult to read, but then again, this is political economics...

5The Theory Behind the EconomyAug 23, 2011
By Travis
This book is a little dated. **However,** understanding the 'theory' behind interpretations of how political institutions interface (or interlace) with economic processes - and vice versa - is quintessential for the Political Economist. This book goes a long way to helping one do that. Very Good.
