Publisher's Summary

Capitalism as a system has spawned deepening economic crisis alongside its bought-and-paid-for political establishment. Neither serves the needs of our society. Whether it is secure, well-paid, and meaningful jobs or a sustainable relationship with the natural environment that we depend on, our society is not delivering the results people need and deserve.  

One key cause for this intolerable state of affairs is the lack of genuine democracy in our economy as well as in our politics. The solution requires the institution of genuine economic democracy, starting with workers managing their own workplaces, as the basis for a genuine political democracy.  

Here, Richard D. Wolff lays out a hopeful and concrete vision of how to make that possible, addressing the many people who have concluded economic inequality and politics as usual can no longer be tolerated and are looking for a concrete program of action.

Must read / listen book

Excellent book, it is not only thought provoking but it provides excellent analysis and rationale for how and why things should change in order to ensure a more democratic, inclusive - economic and political system.

Rated performance as 4 stars as the performance doesn't dominate the content. The content of the book, the way subject matter is treated with, is absolutely engaging, stimulating. It overpowers the reading / performance. But isn't this also, a compliment on how a book reading should be done?

Thanks a lot for making this as audio book. Every time I am in need of a thoughtful voice, I would listen to this, while on the commute, or at home.
