Realizing Hope: Life Beyond Capitalism (Critique. Influence. Change.)
Michael Albert (Author)
New!:
Anarchism
Someone once said that it is easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism. Michael Albert would disagree.
Realizing Hope offers a speculative vision of a future beyond capitalism - an alternative to the exploitation of human labour, the unchecked destruction of the earth, and the oppression of all for the benefit of the few. 'Participatory Economics' - 'Parecon' for short - is Albert's concrete proposal for a classless economy, developed from anarchist principles first introduced by Kropotkin, Rocker, Bakunin, Pannekoek, and others. Under capitalism, the centre cannot hold. This book is a blueprint for a world that is just over the horizon; a world we can begin building today.
