Karl Polanyi's critique of market society is a very powerful tool for understanding our current social reality. It helps us to formulate a creative and purposeful proposal that contributes to build a just, equitable, and more humane society, that would be committed to the future life on the planet. A comparison between the society criticized by Polanyi and ours, leads us to discover the validity of his basic concepts and his method for the preparation of a new critical discourse that not only takes advantage of the legacy of the author, but also expands, clarifies and updates it.
