À propos de cet audio

Is there an alternative to capitalism? In this landmark text Chomsky and Waterstone chart a critical map for a more just and sustainable society.

“Covid-19 has revealed glaring failures and monstrous brutalities in the current capitalist system. It represents both a crisis and an opportunity.... Everything depends on the actions that people take into their own hands.” - From the afterword

How do politics shape our world, our lives, and our perceptions? How much of “common sense” is actually driven by the ruling class’ needs and interests? And how are we to challenge the capitalist structures that now threaten all life on the planet?

Consequences of Capitalism exposes the deep, often unseen, connections between neoliberal “common sense” and structural power. In making these linkages, we see how the current hegemony keeps social justice movements divided and marginalized. And, most importantly, we see how we can fight to overcome these divisions.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

There are a few valid ideas and points, but the vast majority of it is criticizing regimes of free nations and praising murderous dictatorships such as China and Iran for there "positive stance" on nuclear and environment.
The book draws on hyperbole and false causation that has nothing to do with capitalism, other than the fact that it happens to be in the room.
The only example of their economic suggestions for improvement is the co-op in Spain, the Mondragon Corporation that exists because it is in a capitalist economy. A Marxist regime would have taken it over and made its market forces based production irrelevant.
The narration is great.
