Educating capitalists: a rejoinder to Wright and Tsakalotos

Wolfgang Streeck

Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, Cologne

Correspondence: streeck{at}mpifg.de

The paper takes up the basic issue, addressed by both commentators, of whether one can speak of economic performance as a general interest superseding the special interests of groups or classes. It suggests a dynamic concept of capitalist class interests that allows for a contingent, precarious, and perhaps increasingly less feasible reconciliation between general and special interests in economic performance.

Key Words: Institutions • interests • preferences • equity and efficiency • functionalism • JEL Classification: P16 – Political Economy
