In his international bestseller, Kohei Saito argues that while unfettered capitalism is often blamed for inequality and climate change, subsequent calls for “sustainable growth” and a “Green New Deal” are a dangerous compromise. Instead, Saito advocates for degrowth and deceleration, which he conceives as the slowing of economic activity through the democratic reform of labor and production. In practical terms, he argues for the following:

The annals of human history resound with a recurring cautionary tale: the dangers intertwined within the realms of power and wealth. These forces, while capable of bestowing opportunities and influence upon individuals, harbor an intrinsic potential for corruption and harm, casting shadows both upon their wielders and the spheres they influence. At their core, power and wealth hold a duality that can uplift or tarnish, depending on their application.

Unlock the power of shareholder capitalism -- a system that transcends zero-sum games and Wall Street stereotypes. In its essence, shareholder capitalism enables mutually beneficial trade, a concept ingrained in our human history for over 300,000 years. This approach fosters specialization, fuels innovation, and propels economic growth.

Pour Jacques Nantel, professeur émérite en marketing à HEC Montréal depuis près de 40 ans, l’étude de ce que font les consommateurs avec leur argent peut être un formidable microscope afin de mieux comprendre notre société et son évolution.

Jean-Claude Michéa a choisi en 2016 de s'installer dans un petit village des Landes, pour rompre avec le style de vie des grandes métropoles et sa logique du "toujours plus". C'est donc à partir de cette expérience de la "France périphérique" qu'il a mûri ce nouvel essai, qui nous offre une réflexion critique extrêmement originale et stimulante sur nos sociétés dites "progressistes". Il s'y emploie à mettre au jour les conséquences ultimes du mode de développement capitaliste et libéral, qui revêt de façon de plus en plus évidente la forme d'une fuite en avant suicidaire dans tous les domaines.

Abramowitsch hat eine, der Emir von Abu Dhabi auch, Jeff Bezos sowieso: Superyachten sind Ausweis der Zugehörigkeit zum Club der "lucky few". Sie ermöglichen grenzenlose Mobilität und exklusiven Geltungskonsum. Zugleich sind sie schwimmende Umweltsünden. Sie verbrennen Unmengen Treibstoff, ihre Anker zerstören kostbare Flora. Und sie sind Spielfelder obszöner Ungleichheit: Während ihre Besitzer zu den einflussreichsten Menschen der Welt gehören, ist das Bordpersonal oft Willkür und Rechtlosigkeit ausgeliefert.

When our species first learned how to farm and build permanent settlements, things may have gone well at first. All those who worked to grow food (instead of having to find it, as we did for about 200,000 years before) got to consume it themselves and trade any left over for other goods or services. Then, one day, someone with a big club said to most everyone else, “I'm no longer doing all this hard work; you grow the food for me and, if you do as I say, I’ll let you have some of it back so you won’t starve…or else!”

When it first appeared in France, Anti-Oedipus was hailed as a masterpiece by some and "a work of heretical madness" by others. In it, Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari set forth the following theory: Western society's innate herd instinct has allowed the government, the media, and even the principles of economics to take advantage of each person's unwillingness to be cut off from the group. What's more, those who suffer from mental disorders may not be insane, but could be individuals in the purest sense, because they are by nature isolated from society.

Once upon a time, you could work for one company your whole adult life, you could make a decent living, and you could buy your piece of the American Dream. This book is part memoir and part political statement as it follows my thirty-seven-year career at the phone company that began in 1973, about the time economists say worker pay flatlined. The telecommunications industry was ripped apart, absorbed, and gobbled up by each other until, within a few years, Ma Bell had reassembled itself

Dieser Band versammelt einige der klügsten und engagiertesten Köpfe aus den gesellschaftlichen Bereichen, über die sie schreiben.

Un brillante y provocador manifiesto para salvar al capitalismo de sí mismo.

When Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992, he ended twelve years of Republican rule and seemed poised to enact a progressive transformation of the US economy. Yet by the time he left office, the nation's economic and social policies had instead lurched dramatically rightward, exacerbating the inequalities so troubling in our own time. Nelson Lichtenstein and Judith Stein show how the administration's progressive reformers were stymied by a new world of global capitalism that heightened Wall Street influence, undermined domestic manufacturing, and eviscerated the labor movement.

Selflove? Warum? Wenn jeder nur an sich denkt, ist an niemanden gedacht.

Für ein gutes Leben für alle. Jean-Philippe Kindler ist auf der Suche nach neuen gesellschaftlichen Konzepten.

Ob Krisen, Armut oder die zunehmende Verrohung und Spaltung der Gesellschaft: Die beängstigenden Entwicklungen der letzten Jahre sind in erster Linie das Ergebnis verfehlter wie fehlender wirtschaftspolitischer Ideen und Leitbilder. Das sagt der Politökonom Patrick Kaczmarczyk. Seine Suche nach möglichen Auswegen aus dem drohenden sozio-ökonomischen wie ökologischen Desaster führt Kaczmarczyk bis in die Soziallehre der Kirche.

「少ないほうが豊か」である！「アニミズム対二元論」というかつてない視点で文明を読み解き、成長を必要としない次なる社会を描く希望の書！

"Este mundo da injustiça globalizada" é um texto escrito e lido por José Saramago na cerimônia de encerramento do Fórum Social Mundial em 2002.

When economist Angus Deaton immigrated to the United States from Britain in the early 1980s, he was awed by America’s strengths and shocked by the extraordinary gaps he witnessed between people. Economics in America explains in clear terms how the field of economics addresses the most pressing issues of our times—from poverty, retirement, and the minimum wage to the ravages of the nation’s uniquely disastrous health care system—and narrates Deaton’s own account of his experiences as a naturalized US citizen and academic economist.
