Synopsis

In a trenchant, frequently scathing critique of the new capitalism order, a noted social critic condemns "market populism"--the new business culture that identifies markets with democracy and the will of the people--and the right-wing politics of the 1990s and calls for a return to the older American values of economic justice and political democracy. 17,500 first printing.
