The "hard" reading of Polanyi sees him as a radical socialist; the "soft" reading presents him as a theorist of mixed economy. This article sides with the soft interpretation. It uses Polanyi's biography to explain his theoretical "elusiveness," presents a novel interpretation of his three types of economic integration, claiming all economies are "mixed." While it acknowledges Polanyi as one of the major sources of world system theory, it claims that Polanyi saw not only the dangers, but also the necessity and positive consequences of globalization. Finally, it shows that, in spite of Polanyi's life-long commitment to the political left, his scholarly work did not offer an apology of socialism. Instead this article uses Polanyi's theory of economic integration to build a critical political economy of state socialism.

JF - PUBLIC CHOICE J2 - PUBLIC CHOICE VL - 187 PY - 2021 IS - 1-2 SP - 197 EP - 216 PG - 20 SN - 0048-5829 DO - 10.1007/s11127-020-00835-0 UR - https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31410704 ID - 31410704 AB - More than 40 years ago, Janos Kornai introduced his famous supermarket metaphor. Socioeconomic systems cannot be constructed from purposely selected features, similar to customers in a supermarket, who can freely put into their shopping trolley whatever they like. Systems constitute an organic whole. They contain good and bad features in fixed proportions. After 1990, Kornai and most Western commentators expected that as market integration and private property expand, China would eventually turn into a liberal democracy. Prior to the worldwide fall of communism, Kornai had three primary criteria to determine whether a country was socialist or capitalist; later he amended this with six secondary ones. The present paper introduces into this list an additional 11 criteria-i.e. 20 quantifiable metrics altogether. Kornai was among the very first to recognize that with President Xi Jinping taking charge, China made a U-turn. While capitalist elements remain strong, in the final analysis, the country is on its way back to where it was before 1978.
