A Critique Of The Spirit That Produced Political Economy

Auteurs : Adel Zaky Muhammad .

Résumé

This work offers a critique of the civilizational foundations that gave rise to political economy as a European social science. It puts forward the hypothesis that political economy is the product of a spirit shaped by three fused elements of European civilization: Roman Christianity, Roman imperial glory, and Greek science. These elements collectively structured the way in which modern Europe perceived, conceptualized, and systematized economic phenomena. The article thus deconstructs the Eurocentric assumptions of this science, showing that its universalization is based on an implicit exclusion of other civilizations. Through this critical reading, the author calls for the liberation of political economy from its Western ideological framework, aiming to make it a human science open to historical and cultural plurality.
