Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper seeks to outline the type of economic analysis which we perceive to be involved in the ideas on the ‘third way’. In the UK, the emergence and then election of “new Labour” has been closely associated with the development of the notion of the “third way”. We sketch out what we see as the analysis of a market economy which underpins the ideas of the “third way”, which is followed by some remarks on the role of the State which is also involved. We seek to illustrate our analysis by reference to the policy statements of the new Labour government in the UK.RESUMO Este artigo procura delinear o tipo de análise econômica que percebemos estar envolvida nas ideias da ‘terceira via’. No Reino Unido, o surgimento e a eleição de “novo partido trabalhista” tem sido intimamente associado ao desenvolvimento da noção de “terceira via”. Esboçamos o que vemos, como a análise de uma economia de mercado que sustenta as ideias da “terceira via”, seguida de algumas observações sobre o papel do Estado que também está envolvido. Procuramos ilustrar nossa análise por referência às declarações de política do novo governo trabalhista no Reino Unido.
