Jack L. Amariglio (born April 6, 1951) is a North American heterodox economist. He is well known for his work on economic history, class analysis and (with David F. Ruccio) on economic methodology and postmodernism.

Biography

In 1988, Amariglio joined efforts with a group of colleagues to launch Rethinking Marxism, an academic journal that aims to create a platform for rethinking and developing Marxian concepts and theories within economics as well as other fields of social inquiry.
