The developmental debate: reflections on Marxists developmental alternatives

ABSTRACT

The developmentalism debate. This article examines developmentalism, explaining why certain post-Keynesian propositions should be accepted from a Marxist perspective, and what should be modified within the former approach in order to fulfill a transformative role in society. It also critically contrasts the Marxian and post-Keynesian views of the roles of the state and the market, in order to justify policy alternatives to transform capitalist societies.

KEYWORDS:
developmentalism; Marxism; Post-Keynesianism
