Surviving Capitalism (eBook, PDF)

How We Learned to Live with the Market and Remained Almost Human

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book investigates the question of economic globalization - whether it is likely to lead to full convergence between political models and ways of life, or whether, even in a completely globalized world economy, there is likely to be scope for alternative solutions. In a fully globalized world, how will we survive capitalism?
