'There is no alternative' has been the unofficial mantra of the
neoliberal order since its utterance by Margaret Thatcher in the
1980s. However, there is an alternative to our crisis-ridden,
austerity-inflicted world - and not just one alternative, but many.
Challenging the arguments for markets, mainstream economics and
capitalism from Adam Smith onwards, Economics After Capitalism
provides a step-by-step guide to various writers, movements and
schools of thought, critical of neoliberal globalisation. These range
from Keynesian-inspired reformists such as Geroge Soros and Joseph
Stiglitz, critics of inequality like Thomas Piketty and Amaitya Sen,
to more radical voices including Naomi Klein, Marxists such as David
Harvey, anarchists, and autonomists including Toni Negri and Michael
Hardt.
By providing a clear and accessible guide to the economics of
anti-capitalism, Derek Wall successfully demonstrates that an open
source eco-socialist alternative to rampant climate change, elite rule
and financial chaos is not just necessary, but possible.
