Not latest, but still highly relevant is Shaikh's article on crisis theory (more
relevant to Baran and Sweezy - MONOPOLY CAPITAL - than Baran). It's required
reading. It was in an early special issue of Review of Radical Political
Economics. Anwar Shaikh, "An Introduction to the History of Crisis Theories" in
U.S. CAPITALISM IN CRISIS, URPE, New York, 1978.

Hey everyone,
I was wondering: what are some the present-day critiques of Paul Baran's
"The Political Economy of Growth"? What are some schools of thought that
have emerged that oppose and/or support his thesis? Is he generally
dismissed now, or does the basic approach still hold up?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
