Klappentext zu „The Economizing Strategy “
This essay is a theoretical analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of social theory as derived from neoclassical economics (i.e., the economizing strategy) and Marxism. The goal of this analysis is to move beyond the simplistic Marxism versus neoclassicism polemic. An interest in both perspectives may be based on the limitations of either paradigm. A production orientation is used as a starting point of an analysis of social change in the Caribbean, and in a small village of Martinique; the economizing strategy provides an alternative perspective.

Rezension zu „The Economizing Strategy “
Baber's book provides one of the most provocative theoretical analyses to date of the debate between the strengths and weaknesses of social theory as derived from neoclassical economics, on the one hand, and Marxism on the other. ... This book is a 'must' reading for traditional neoclassical economists as well as Marxist economists. I would also recommend it to Caribbeanists as well as people interested in looking at a new synthesis of modernization and economic development. (Yolanda T. Moses, Transforming Anthropology)
