Description
Civic Capitalism by Colin Hay and Anthony Payne is a thought-provoking analysis of the crisis of the Anglo-liberal growth model. The authors argue that it's time to move beyond this outdated approach and build an alternative that prioritises sustainability, social equity, and environmental protection. They propose a new model of capitalism, which they term "civic capitalism", where the market is governed by the state in the name of the people, with the aim of delivering collective public goods. This approach reverses the traditional logic of Anglo-liberalism, where citizens are expected to serve the interests of the market rather than the other way around. By exploring this new model and its potential application in advanced capitalist societies, Hay and Payne offer a compelling vision for a more equitable and sustainable future.
