Because they have failed, however, to discard the underlying individualistic-mechanist presuppositions of this model, they have ended up by erecting an alternative theory of capitalist development which is, in its central Frank's original formulations aimed to destroy the suffocating orthodoxies of Marxist evolutionary stage theory upon which the Communist Parties' political strategies of 'popular front' and 'bourgeois democratic revolution' had been predicated.

In an opinion piece in The New York Times, they write that the state capitalist model behind China's increasingly successful global push threatens the values of the established democracies. Indeed, the development of capitalist economy has created the material conditions for the realisation of socialism; it can also be said that capitalism is the mother of socialism.
