Contemporary critical approaches to political economy can be divided into two loose broad categories. First, there are critical institutionalist accounts. Second, there is what may be called a broad critical humanist tradition. By bringing together works from both these traditions, this review essay aims to highlight key differences, common ground, and possible ways forward.
