Jürgen Habermas on State Capitalism - Dictionary of Arguments
IV 556 State capitalism/Habermas: Pollock and Horkheimer tended to believe that with the Nazi regime, similar to the Soviet regime, a state capitalist order had been established in which private ownership of means of production only retained a formal character, while control of the macroeconomic process shifted from the market to planning bureaucracies. In this view, the authoritarian state corresponds to a totally administered society. VsState Capitalism/Neumann/Kirchheimer: Neumann and Kirchheimer contradicted this thesis with the thesis that the authoritarian state only represents the totalitarian shell of an intact monopoly capitalism in which the market mechanism still functions. According to this view, even the unfolded fascism does not eliminate the primacy of economic imperatives over the state. The compromises between economic, party and administrative elites come about on the basis of a private capitalist economic system. >Fascism._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
