Democracy at work : a cure for capitalism  Cover Image Book Book

Democracy at work : a cure for capitalism / Richard Wolff.

Wolff, Richard D. (Author).

Summary:

Capitalism-the system-has spawned deepening economic crises alongside its bought-and-paid-for political establishment. Neither serves modern societies' needs. Wolff's compelling new manifesto advocates an alternative based on workers themselves directing their workplaces.
Democracy at Work shows why and how to make democratic workplaces real. It speaks to those who realize that capitalist economics and politics as usual have become intolerable and who seek a concrete action program. Book jacket.
