politischökonomischen

Politischökonomisch is a German adjective that translates to "political-economic" or "politico-economic" in English. It describes the interconnectedness and mutual influence between political processes and economic systems. This concept recognizes that governmental decisions, policies, and power structures cannot be fully understood without considering their economic underpinnings, and conversely, economic phenomena are shaped by political forces.

The field of political economy, which this adjective relates to, is a multidisciplinary area of study that examines how political factors affect economic outcomes and how economic factors influence political decisions. It explores topics such as the role of the state in the economy, the distribution of wealth and power, the impact of international trade on domestic politics, and the political motivations behind economic policies.

When something is described as politischökonomisch, it signifies an analysis that integrates both political and economic dimensions. For instance, a politischökonomisch analysis of a trade agreement would consider not only the economic benefits and costs but also the political negotiations, lobbying efforts, and national interests involved. Similarly, a politischökonomisch perspective on taxation would examine how tax policies are formulated through political processes and how they subsequently redistribute economic resources and influence economic behavior. The term emphasizes a holistic view, rejecting the idea that politics and economics can be neatly separated.
