Political capitalism[1] or Politically oriented capitalism is a concept introduced by Max Weber in his 1921 book Economy and Society to describe monetary profit-making through non-market means.[2][3] In 2018, Holcombe describes political capitalism as an economic system in which the sharp distinction between states and markets is blurred.[4][5][6][7][8]
Robert Brenner and Dylan Riley have characterized the post-1990 economy of United States as political capitalism, where raw 'political power' rather than 'productive investment' is the "key determinant of rate of return".[9]
