The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism34,99 €
Privatization has been on the right-wing agenda for years. Health care, schools, Social Security, public lands, the military, prisons all are considered fair game. Through stories, analysis, impassioned argument even song lyrics Si Kahn and Elizabeth Minnich show that corporations are, by their very nature, unable to fulfill effectively what have traditionally been the responsibilities of government. They make a powerful case that the market is not the measure of all things, and that a vital public sector is an indispensable component of a healthy democracy.
Like this excellent and timely book says, these days the foxes aren t just guarding the henhouse they re on the inside. Unless we want to be devoured by the corporate foxes, we chickens better get organized. This book is a great place to start.
Jim Hightower, author of the New York Times bestseller Thieves in High Places
