Interdisciplinary Economics
Der Politologe Ingo Stützle bemüht sich um eine marxistische Kritik an der Modern Monetary Theory. Zwar stellt er einige valide Kritikpunkt heraus – etwa die mangelnde Berücksichtigung von Machtverhältnissen. Doch ist seine Gegendarstellung kaum weniger machtblind. Eine Kritik von Malte Kornfeld.

This dossier aims not only to collect the most important publications on profit inflation but also intends to map out the development of the discourse and the different positions within the debate.
Profit Inflation: Mapping the debate
By focusing on the human side as well as the intellectual dimensions of how economists work and think, this collection of interviews with top economists of the 20th century becomes a startling and lively introduction to the modern world of macroeconomics.
Inside the Economist's Mind
Smith contends that there is no possible solution to our global ecological crisis within the framework of any conceivable capitalism. The only alternative to market-driven planetary collapse is to transition to a largely planned, mostly publicly-owned economy based on production for need, on democratic governance and rough socio-economic equality, and on contraction and convergence between the global North and South.
Green Capitalism

Am 06. November 2024 zerbrach die deutsche Bundesregierung an der Schuldenbremse und der Frage nach Zukunftsinvestitionen. Hinter der wirtschaftspolitischen Auseinandersetzung steckt eine tiefe Krise des exportabhängigen deutschen Wachstumsmodells, analysiert der Politökonom Max Hauser.

Usually, Critical Theory and Economics are, for better or worse, no longer seen to be in a continuum. This article by Lukas Meisner serves as an introduction to Critical Theory for all (heterodox) economists, who want to understand and explain what they can, otherwise, just state and describe.
Critical Theory for Heterodox Economists: Questioning the Premises of Supply and Demand
The age of the contemplative economist-scholar—at home equally in classical languages, economic history, the history of ideas, and mathematical theory—has passed. The history of economics as a subdiscipline has lost touch with the mainstream study of economics. InThe Future of the History of Economics, internationally known scholars from ten countries provide a comparative assessment of the subdiscipline.
The Future of the History of Economics
IS-LM is perhaps the prime example of `cognitive dissonance' in economics, and is problematic to many economists. On the one hand, the IS-LM model is still taught by many academic economists or they use it to derive the AD-AS approach. On the other hand, the same economists realize the limitations of the basic IS-LM model and would not now use it for policy analysis, as they did in the past. The distinction between pedagogical and analytical efficacy is made by all the authors in this volume regarding the IS-LM model.
IS-LM and Modern Macroeconomics

This article explores the production function, the prevailing view of capital that underpins it, and the main alternative perspective.

Why We Should Think Twice About Production Functions
In reviewing this book in The Economic Journal, S.G. Checkland said that it should be read as a vigorous attempt to relate economics to general thinking and as a challenge to those who are practitioners or elaborators of narrowly prescribed techniques.
Evolutionary Economics

Teaching Post Keynesian Economics
In deutschen Führungsetagen dominieren weiterhin die Männer. Warum das so ist und wie das verändert werden kann. Das hat verschiedene Ursachen. Ein Faktor jedoch: schlechtere Aufstiegschancen. Unter dem Begriff der gläsernen Decke diskutiert die Fachliteratur ein Phänomen, das unter anderem Frauen den Aufstieg in der Hierarchie verschiedener Organisationen nur bis zu einem bestimmten Punkt ermöglicht. Irgendwann stockt der Fahrstuhl und auch die Treppe führt nur vor eine verschlossene Tür. Für vergleichbar qualifizierte Männer ist sie jedoch offen. Warum ist das so und wie wird das Problem seitens der Politik angegangen?
Die gläserne Decke - Warum Frauen der Weg an die Spitze oft verwehrt ist
Ein Blick auf die marxistische Staatstheorie lohnt sich, um die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen staatlicher Politik besser zu verstehen. Moritz Zeiler präsentiert drei Ansätze der marxistischen Staatstheorie, die in das Thema einführen und als Appetitanreger für weitere Lektüre, Debatte und Theorieaneignung dienen sollen.
Was ist der Staat? Einführung in zentrale Thesen marxistischer Staatstheorie
Die Welt verändern, ohne die Macht zu übernehmen – dieser Buchtitel aus dem Jahr 2002 steht emblematisch für ein Verhältnis zur Macht, das in Teilen der Linken lange Zeit vorherrschend war. Der Autor des Buches, John Holloway, war selbst Teil der Weltsozialforen-Bewegung und stellte sich entschieden gegen herkömmliche Vorstellungen linker Gegenmacht, etwa im Sinne des Aufbaus einer linken Massenpartei. Aus derselben Zeit stammt auch das Konzept der «Multitude» aus der Feder von Michael Hardt und Antonio Negri. Es richtete sich gegen den identitären Begriff eines «Volkes», und ebenso gegen eine politische Bezugnahme auf die «Arbeiter*innenklasse». Diesen politischen Subjekten wurde eine Vielfalt widerständiger, global verteilter Praktiken und Gruppierungen entgegengestellt, die sich jedoch nicht vereinheitlichen ließen. Das Verhältnis dieser Multitude zur Erringung von Macht wurde offengelassen.
Die Macht übernehmen und die Welt verändern?
Despite some diversification modern economics still attracts a great deal of criticism. This is largely due to highly unrealistic assumptions underpinning economic theory, explanatory failure, poor policy framing, and a dubious focus on prediction. Many argue that flaws continue to owe much of their shortcomings to neoclassical economics.
What is Neoclassical Economics?
Austerity has been at the center of political controversy following the 2008 financial crisis, invoked by politicians and academics across the political spectrum as the answer to, or cause of, our post-crash economic malaise.

Mit der westlichen Industrialisierung sind wir bisher in der Mehrheit nicht sehr gut gefahren. Warum also sollte dieses Modell international erstrebenswert sein? Ein Beitrag von Anke Schaffartzik.
Können und wollen wir alle im Überfluss leben?
For a long time, price controls were considered taboo, as neoliberal economic theory assumes that prices are supposedly formed freely by supply and demand. But especially in times of crisis, the state must intervene and cap prices to protect wage earners from excessive burdens. However, the how matters.
