Sumario:This paper proposes a political economy analytical framework to study the standard periodization of capitalist development established by economic history, as long cycles of policy deployment, in which the market and the state alternate as the leading forces driving world economic growth.

In addition, the proposed analytical framework is compared with existing theories and explanations on capitalist cycles and economic crises.
