A chapter in Reading Karl Polanyi for the Twenty-First Century, 2007, pp 1-10 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract During the last three decades, the post-Second World War international order has been challenged by a series of developments through which the market economy, with its self-regulating character taken for granted, has begun to be perceived as a spontaneous process that comes into being when artificial barriers in the form of state intervention are eliminated. In a parallel vein, the possibility of shaping the economy in conformity with social objectives by the exercise of political will has been restricted by the logic of the market.
