Trending and Emerging

There is a growing body of work focused on analyzing China's unique socialist market economy, its implications for global capitalism, and its role in international relations. - Environmental and Social Issues:
Emerging themes around socio-ecological crises and the role of political economy in addressing environmental degradation have gained traction, reflecting a broader societal concern. - Financialization and Capital Dynamics:
Research on financialization—how financial motives and markets influence economic behavior—has become more prevalent, indicating a deeper examination of contemporary economic structures. - Political Responses to Global Crises:
The journal is increasingly focusing on how political economies respond to global crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and its socio-economic ramifications.
Declining or Waning
- Neoliberal Critique:
Although neoliberalism remains a topic of discussion, the intensity and frequency of critical analyses of neoliberal policies have decreased compared to previous years. - Theoretical Debates on Value Theory:
Discussions centered on the foundational aspects of value theory, while still present, have seen a reduction in frequency as newer themes and methodologies gain traction. - Historical Comparisons of Economic Systems:
While historical comparisons were once a staple, recent publications suggest a shift towards more contemporary analyses, leading to a decline in comparative historical studies. - Focus on Traditional Capitalism:
The journal has seen a waning interest in traditional capitalism discussions, particularly in the context of Western economies, as researchers turn their attention to alternative systems and emerging economies. - Local Case Studies:
There appears to be a decrease in localized case studies focusing on specific national contexts, with more emphasis on broader global analyses instead.
