Synopsis

Civic Capitalism

About this title

Review:

"For years we have been told ?There Is No Alternative? to the debt–soaked, inequality generating model of neoliberal capitalism that we have had for the past 30 years. Well, now there is. Hay and Payne call it ′Civic Capitalism.′ I would call it our last chance for a future we would want to leave to our kids."
Mark Blyth, Brown University

"Anglo–liberal capitalism has failed spectacularly. It can?t be fixed or spun. ?Civic capitalism? may save us, say the authors of this vital, spritely book. And they are right. The powerful should be tied to chairs, made to read the book and shift their stubborn mind sets. If they don?t take note, the world is doomed."
Yasmin Alibhai–Brown
