Today’s crisis lacks the Polanyian protective counter-movement.

Evidence

As Fraser (2017) argues: “While today’s crisis appears to follow a Polanyian structural logic, grounded in the dynamics of fictitious commodification, it does not manifest a Polanyian political logic, figured by the double movement” (31). — Aris Komporozos-Athanasiou, Speculative Communities, 493

Categorization

• XREF: This is central to the reader’s assessment of whether the author’s ‘counter-speculation’ reclaims the double movement or concedes it.
• QUESTION: Does the reader’s assessment hinge on whether the book offers a Polanyian political logic that Fraser says is missing?
