Beschreibung
Capitalism has created a world of bullshit abundance, where we have too much of what we don’t need and too little of what we truly do. This hollow pursuit, achieved at the expense of both people and the planet, has forced us to confront ecological limits we can no longer ignore. Transitioning beyond our ecocidal capitalist system has emerged as the defining challenge of our time.
Radical Abundance presents a roadmap or transitioning beyond capitalism, offering a bold vision grounded in Marxist thought and real-world socialist experiments. This book blends theory with hands-on experience to provide a concrete path forward for creating a just and sustainable future.
The co-authors propose Public-Common Partnerships (PCPs) as a model for communities to partner with public bodies, gaining control over the resources that affect their lives. This approach fosters self-expanding, radical democratic governance, shifting focus from individual assets to building a broader democratic economy—a "Community Wealth Building gone viral." A world of radical abundance is still possible, but only through democratic economic planning and worker control.
