Synopsis
New ideas for a fairer economy and democracy.
This nonfiction work presents a bold vision for a postwar society built on fraternity, planned cooperation, and broad participation. It argues that the era of wage slavery and private profiteering should end, replaced by common ownership of production and a democratic, community-minded economy. The book lays out core goals and a road map to transform industry, finance, housing, education, and welfare.
- A complete program: universal minimum standards, democratic control of industry, reform of national finance, and surplus wealth used for the common good.
- Specific reforms: stronger protections for workers, equal pay for equal work, nationalization of key industries, and public management of essential services.
- A practical path to growth: modernize production through science, efficiency, and widespread participation, aiming for less waste and greater social benefit.
- A long‑term view: continuous development of policy as knowledge grows, guided by the idea that law should serve social progress.
Ideal for readers seeking a clear, historically grounded argument for socialist reform and how it might reshape politics, economy, and everyday life.
