Title
Absolute Capitalism
Abstract
The article deals with the emergence of absolute capitalism due to the efforts of states to promote social reproduction. It explores the association between absolute capitalism and neoliberalism, a ruling-class political-ideological project that is connected to the rise of monopoly-finance capital. Some 20th century thinkers had their own ideas about absolute capitalism, including Karl Polanyi and John Maynard Keynes.
