The Future of the Market by Elmar Altvater

Considers the discordant state of the capitalist world in the 1990s, drawing on both green and socialist economies. Altvater's central concern is to examine the claims made for the market, both in the history of capitalism and in the globalized market economy.
This is a rich, well-argued, challenging book; it is both a defence of Marxist political economy and socialism at a time when they are under attack and an imaginative extension of them to take account of the increased importance of the ecological question-- Bob Jessop, Lancaster University
A translator from Romanian, Spanish, German, French, and Italian, Patrick Camiller has translated many works, including Dumitru Tsepeneag's Vain Art of the Fugue, The Necessary Marriage, and Hotel Europa.
