Description

In this short, but rich piece of work, Erzsebet Szalai offers a neo-socialist alternative to socialism (i.e. communist ruled state-socialism) and neo-capitalism.

Drawing upon the fertile tradition of left-wing Hungarian Social Sciences, she offers her own theory of transitional society, suggesting that socialism was not an independent formation, but instead a society in transition.

She relocates soviet-type societies on the semi-periphery of the capitalist world system.

In addition she offers a critique of capitalism that pivots on the two connected issues of over production and ecological crisis.

She makes the distinction between an anti-globalism critique and a globalization critique, locating herself in the latter.

This work offers readers the opportunity to engage in a critique of capitalism that is organized along a new understanding of socialism itself.
