Capitalism and Forms of Capitalism

David M. Kotz

Review of Radical Political Economics, 2015, vol. 47, issue 4, 541-549

Abstract: To understand a severe economic crisis such as that of 2008, it is not sufficient to analyze capitalism-in-general along with various economic policy decisions and contingent events. An adequate analysis requires taking account of the particular form of capitalism. This approach to crisis theory is illustrated by an examination of the roots of the economic crisis that broke out in 2008 in the United States.
