[T]he book is a key contribution on both the SSA and PDT scholarships as well as on the political economy of contemporary Spain. Rey-Araujo has written an excellent book which will influence future research in these fields. - Joan Miro, Capital & Class [This book] rigorously vindicates a radical political economy of/for (re)conciliation between Marxism and post-structuralist discourse theory, in order to comprehend the frictional mechanisms of socioeconomic reproduction and sociopolitical interactions. This is a sensible theoretical framework for capturing the complexity of capitalist societies as actually existing formations which are institutionalized and embodied, just as the author shows through the case study of Spain's contemporary socio-economic evolution. Furthermore, it is also a proposal of great value to many other fields of study beyond the strictly economic, as well as to those political economy approaches that remain skeptical to the 'cultural turn' in critical social sciences. - Laura Martinez-Jimenez, Journal of Cultural Economy

Additionally, he provides an easy-to-read but very well-substantiated account of the recent political and economic history of Spain, which is very welcome. - Luis Buendia, Review of Radical Political Economics
