Can someone please help me with a reflection piece on this and help me start it? I would greatly appreciate it if I could get some help on it and maybe help me begin it. I need to use quotes with citations, please, and not just summarize, and I am having some trouble.

I need to use these articles and class slides and quotes with citations; I can't summarize; I also have to answer them. Look in directions Please give me a hand

Your commentaries should demonstrate that you have completed the readings, but these are not summary pieces. You must go beyond summary; put the readings into conversation with each other, with the lectures, with things you have learned in other courses, and/or with recent news and world events. Feel free to agree or disagree with the authors, but keep in mind that the authors we are reading are experts in the field and you are relatively new to the field. Therefore, don't make extreme claims that you can't support. You may devote a small portion of your commentaries to include a personal reaction, but do not let your personal reaction overtake the primary goal of these papers, which is to engage more deeply with the readings themselves. You consumed a lot of material in the last last week through lectures, videos and readings, so I'm asking you to take a step back and think about it as a whole, and to reflect on what you have learned. But, not in a personal sense, but rather as someone reviewing the week's material and putting it into context for another person in an intelligent way. Polanyi's critique of the 19t c. Ch. 11-12: \"The birth of the liberal creed\" * self-regulating market as a utopian fiction \"Laissez faire was planned.\" In disposing of a man's labor power the system would...disposes of the physical, psychological and moral entity 'man' attached to that tag. Robbed of the protective covering of cultural institutions, human beings would perish from the effects of social exposure; they would die as the victims of acute social dislocation through vice, perversion, crime and starvation. Nature would be reduced to its elements, neighbourhoods and landscapes defiled, rivers polluted, military safety jeopardized, the power to produce food and raw materials destroyed. Finally the market administration of purchasing power would periodically liquidate business enterprises, for shortages and surfeits of money would prove as disastrous to business as floods and droughts in primitive society.\" Polanyi's analysis of the 20t c. Ch. 13: \"Class interest and social change\" * the double movement is economic, but is experienced socially * \"All this should warn us against relying too much on the economic interests of given classes in the explanation of history.\" * Explicit critique of Marx: sets up Polanyi's later analysis of fascism, state socialism, and the New Deal as different responses to the conditions created by the \"great transformation\" of the 19t century \"The Self-Regulating Market\" Nothing must be allowed to inhibit the formation of mar- cets, nor must incomes be permitted to be formed otherwise than hrough sales. Neither must there be any interference with the adjust- nent of prices to changed market conditionswhether the prices are hose of goods, labor, land, or money. Hence there must not only be narkets for all elements of industry, but no measure or policy must se countenanced that would influence the action of these markets. Neither price, nor supply, nor demand must be fixed or regulated; only uch policies and measures are in order which help to ensure the self- egulation of the market by creating conditions which make the narket the only organizing power in the economic sphere
