| Description: |
Toxic debt, rising job losses, collapsing commodity prices and expanding poverty - how can we rein in these beasts unleashed by the free market economy. This book looks at the mess globalized capitalism is in, and shifts the focus back to where it belongs - putting the needs of people and the environment first. |
| Synopsis: |
David Ransom and Vanessa Baird have gathered a passionate group of writers, activists, leaders and thinkers, all eager to seize this opportunity to replace deep-rooted problems with well-founded solutions. "People First Economics" buzzes with inspiration and action. Bolivian President Evo Morales promotes his 10-step programme to save the world, life and humanity; US thinker Michael Albert advocates a classless alternative to capitalism; Canadian writer Naomi Klein encourages public revolt...This book is about more than economics. It's about radical changes that are social, moral and ecological, and it provides the opportunity to rethink what really matters in life. |
