Is there an alternative economic policy?
The Development Economics Division of the Hungarian Economists' Society run a series of debates on between early 1995 till the end of 1996. These debates focusing on a scientifically based economic policy that could be an alternative to neoliberalism have been published in a volume introduced here.
The twilight of monetary dictatorship

"What kind of job do you find humiliating?" was asked from applicants to a student group. The funniest answer was, "what also a woman or a black can do." Probably this catches the best how privileged groups in society take granted the division of labour between gender and races, the marginalisation of groups with a lower status and everyday discrimination. This phenomenon is not new but a turning point can recently be detected in social science that created an explosion in the number of studies on the increasing multitude of layers of the political and social power structure and that directs progressive social science also towards new directions.
