Description

Steve Paxton's How Capitalism Ends navigates a complex conversation about our civilization's urgent need for change. Over 300 years of growth in productive capacity have led to problems that capitalism cannot solve, such as iniquitous distribution and environmental degradation. Paxton draws on a diverse range of contemporary and historical evidence, including the Putney Debates of 1647, Modern Monetary Theory, John Locke, Thomas Piketty, and the Rights of Man. This book sets the scene for a conversation about the future of our society, exploring the intersection of economics, philosophy, and current affairs. By examining the limitations of capitalism, Paxton offers a path forward for addressing the pressing issues we face today.
