Canadian Political Economy: A Critique

Abstract

The most striking feature of the literature pertaining to the political economy of Canadian development written in the last decade from a Marxian perspective is the continuity which it exhibits with earlier bourgeois interpretations. What is perhaps more remarkable is the fact that a large segment of Marxist or, perhaps more accurately, neo-Marxist contributions to Canadian political economy consciously conceive of their work as the logical culmination of the conclusions already implicit in bourgeois Canadian political economy.
