Description

Economic Restructuring and Political Response, clarifies theoretical issues of economic restructuring, developed as a result of the economic upheavels which began in the early seventies and have had major social and political consequences. It explores the theoretical nature of economic restructuring in the postwar period and examines actual qualitative transformations in capitalistic social formation. It then focuses on the political response to these transformations, considering the influence of economic restructuring on political action.
