The Evolution and Enlightenment: the School of Radical Political Economy in the U.S.

20世纪60年代末70年代初,美国激进政治经济学联盟成立及《激进政治经济学评论》创刊,标志着激进政治经济学派作为一个相对独立的学派产生。历经近半个世纪的发展历程,该学派主要以资本主义批判者的姿态彰显其独特的思想特征,激进学者较为客观地剖析了西方国家的经济社会问题,并提出新的社会制度构想。21世纪以来,激进学者开始更加注重从经济、社会、政治、文化、环境等多维视角,综合分析经济社会现实问题。此期间,激进学者们增多了对中国经济社会发展问题的关注,虽然研究结论有待甄别和考量,但对开拓中国马克思主义政治经济学的研究视野具有重要的参考价值。
