Concluding remarks. 330 $aThis book explores the legacy of economist Eugen Varga and the continued importance of his life and work. It examines the influence of Marx and Luxemburg on Varga?s ideas, particularly his analysis of the capitalist mode of production and his theoretical work on the development of an alternative mode of production. How Varga found limitations in not just his own strongly empirical epistemology, but also in the anti-dialectic Stalinist system are discussed, alongside why these critiques remain relevant in relation to neoliberal theories, inequality, and ecological concerns. Varga?s specific notion of the modern state, his political economy analysis, and his position within the Marxist economic tradition are also covered. This book provides insight into the challenges faced when attempting to overcome the capitalist mode of production, as well as the historical limitations of scientific research and how ideas can be corrupted by personal, political, and societal forces. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in Marxist economics, the political economy, and the history of economic thought. Judith Dellheim has been a Senior Research Fellow at the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation. Frieder Otto Wolf is Professor of Philosophy at the Free University of Berlin. 410 0$aLuxemburg International Studies in Political Economy,$x2662-6381 606 $aEconomics$xHistory 606 $aEconomics 606 $aMarxian economics 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology 606 $aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems 606 $aMarxist Economics 606 $aEconomic History 615 0$aEconomics$xHistory. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aMarxian economics. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 14$aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology. 615 24$aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems. 615 24$aMarxist Economics. 615 24$aEconomic History. 676 $a330.904 700 $aDellheim$b Judith$01886295 701 $aDellheim$01886296 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911049223203321 996 $aThe Economic Legacy of Eugen Varga$94521782 997 $aUNINA
